    Watermelon Martinis

    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup water
    5 cups watermelon, seeds removed
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 1/4 cups vodka
    2 ounces melon liqueur, optional
    8 lemon twists, for garnish

    Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a small saucepan and cook until the sugar has completely dissolved. Let cool.

    In a food processor, puree the watermelon flesh. Add a little of the sugar syrup to sweeten, to taste. Pour the pureed watermelon into 2 empty ice cube trays and freeze for at least 4 hours.

    In a blender combine the frozen watermelon cubes, more simple syrup, to taste, lemon juice and vodka, melon liqueur and blend until smooth. Pour into 8 frozen martini glasses and garnish with a lemon twist.

    They sound good but could you imagine the hangover you'd get the next morning with all that sugar? Not some thing i try when getting plowed.
