Watermelon Spritzer:: THE drink of the season

Watermelon is ripe and ready this time of year which means it's time for Keith Robinson's delicious batched cocktail recipe, the watermelon spritzer. It's perfect for spring and summer. Try it this weekend, and let me know what you think. Remember: you can always cut it down for a smaller, more COVID-19 appropriate group. Or just make the entire batch for a weekend of refreshments.
