The Champagne Watermelon Cocktail You'll be Sipping all Summer

Ahhhh, refreshing

We love rosé and all, but sometimes variation is key. And that’s where our new best friend, watermelon Champagne, comes into the picture. Here’s the two-ingredient, super-quick way to make this perfectly refreshing watermelon champagne cocktail.

What you need: Watermelon juice and a bottle of your finest Champagne (err--any sparkling wine). You can even make your own watermelon juice by puréeing fresh fruit chunks, a trick we learned from Dianeabroad.

How to make it: Fill a Champagne flute 1/3 of the way with watermelon juice. Fill the rest with Champagne. If you want to get fancy, you can also add mint leaves or basil for garnish.

Now what? Drink up and vow not to make any other cocktail this summer.
