It has really been a very hot summer in Florida. Your Watermelon Cooler sounds so refreshing! For some of my friends, including me, who like what I call "sissy" martinis, I think I will try your recipe and substitute vodka for the water. Think it will work?

Looking at this while I'm eating my watermelon in 90+ degree Michigan weather. Looks so refreshing. I say add a splash (or two) of vodka and you're good to go.
