You will find a fabulous green drink in this Melon Ball Drop that features Midori melon liqueur. That lovely liqueur is paired with a citrus vodka and an elderflower liqueur, which St. Germain is a great and possibly the only option for most people. So the Melon Ball Drop has a lot of fruitiness and a little herbalness offset by a sweet sugar rim and a melon garnish, all of which combine for a very interesting martini-style drink.

Ingredients:

  • 2 oz Midori melon liqueur
  • 1 oz Skyy Infusions Citrus vodka
  • 1/2 oz elderflower liqueur
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • sugar for rimming
  • melon ball for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Rim a chilled cocktail glass with sugar.
  2. Pour the liquids into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
  3. Shake well.
  4. Strain into the prepared glass.
  5. Garnish with a melon ball.
