Instructions
Prepare Your Ingredients
Start by gathering all your ingredients. If you haven’t already, make your fresh melon juice by blending ripe cantaloupe or honeydew melon until smooth, then strain it to remove any pulp. Set aside.
Mix the Cocktail
In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, peach schnapps, fresh melon juice, lime juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice.
Shake It Up
Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This helps to chill the mixture and blend the flavors.
Strain and Serve
Strain the mixture into chilled martini glasses. Be sure to use a fine mesh strainer if you prefer a smoother texture without any pulp.
Garnish
Garnish each glass with fresh peach slices and melon balls for an added touch of freshness and visual appeal.
Enjoy
Sip your Peach Melon Martini and savor the sweet, fruity flavors.
Variations
Fruit-Infused: Add a splash of your favorite fruit liqueur like raspberry or blackberry for a twist on flavor.
Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace vodka and schnapps with sparkling water and increase the amount of melon juice and simple syrup for sweetness.
Herbal Touch: Muddle fresh mint or basil leaves in the shaker before mixing for a refreshing herbal note.
