Summer and watermelon. I've waxed lyrical about it before (find some related watermelon posts from salads to a vokatini here), and am afraid may launch into the same well-worn but heartily merry jingle each summer anew. Watermelon fish and giraffe are a fun food to make and share with kids. All displayed on beautiful, botanical platterware from Mustardseed and Moonshine
It appears, summer has decided to bare some skin and peek over the mountain in Cape Town - after an infuriating game of now you see me, now you don't. What better way to celebrate summer (and the upcoming weekend- rumoured to be smokin' hot) than with ice cold in-season watermelon and chilled vodka cocktail - a watermelon vodkatini. Add a handful of raspberries and you're rosy. There's no sieving, shaking, and barely any stirring here, unless you insist.
This is an amazing smoothie for hot summer days- even better if someone brings it to you poolside, or to bed first thing in the morning! Frozen watermelon and an assortment of summer berries with a hint of mint.
