The Sweetest Goodbye

The Sweetest Goodbye is my original cocktail inspired by the Honey Deuce, the official drink of the US Open. With vodka, and a playful twist of watermelon and a touch of elderflower, this refreshing recipe brings the spirit of summer and the matches home...even if you're not in New York.

Notes

For this cocktail, I wanted to have the honey dew be more than just a garnish, hence the honey dew juice ice cube. Also, I couldn't help but throw in a piece of fresh watermelon.
