THEN

Cut watermelon into cubes and flash freeze for 30 minutes. Later, add frozen watermelon to an infusion jar or glass vessel and cover with Tito’s Vodka. Let it sit for 4-5 days and strain out the fruit with a cheesecloth to make the infusion. Take 1.75 oz. of watermelon-infused Tito’s and build the rest of the cocktail, in order listed, over ice and stir. Garnish with fresh fruit.
