Watermelon Jalapeno Cocktail Cooler

• 1 blenderful of watermelon cubes
• 2 limes, wedged
• 1 bunch of leafy herbs (mint, basil, cilantro, etc.)
• 1-2 jalapeño peppers, deseeded.
• 1-2 Cups of club soda
• Liquor of choice, approximately 12 oz. (gin, tequila, rum, vodka, etc.)
• Simple syrup (water and sugar), to taste
• Ice cubes

Blend the chilled watermelon in a blender and strain for a smoother cocktail to serve on ice. For a frozen variation, freeze some watermelon cubes and blend it in with the chilled watermelon.

In a large pitcher, muddle 1 lime, herb leaves, and 1-2 jalapeños. Use a rolling pin or the bottom of a glass bottle if you don't have a muddler.

Stir in the blended watermelon, liquor, a splash of soda, and sweeten to taste with simple syrup. 

Serve in ice-filled glasses and garnish with lime wedges, herbs, and jalapeño slices.

For a non-alcoholic version, simply leave out the liquor and enjoy!
