A sweet & fruity, summer melon drink.
Brimming with the tropical flavors of coconut & pineapple along with the vibrant watermelon, this is a juicy cocktail to enjoy on a hot summer evening. Yet another drink & name coined by Arjun which we really enjoyed. The kids got their share without the alcohol & enjoyed sipping the fresh mingle of summer.
