Leveraging some cool refreshing cocktails on hot Houston, Texas summer afternoons, especially on Sundays. Yesterday for International Melon Day made the Midori “Muskmelon” inspired melon ball cocktail. So delicious, I have to post the recipe:

• 1 part Midori Melon Liquer
• 1 part Deep Eddy Grapefruit Vodka
• 2 parts Meyer lemon juice

Pour all parts into a cocktail glass with lots of crushed ice and garnish with melon balls. Unfortunately, I was out of honeydew melon and cantaloupe. So from one of my little citrus trees,  I sliced an Owari mandarin orange and garnished. Felicidades!

My almost empty bottle of Midori Liqueur…
