Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Garnish this beautiful drink with thin "sticks" of watermelon and mint leaves, for an impressive but simple presentation.
  • tip 2
    If you like your drinks extra bubbly, try substituting chilled diet tonic water for the sparkling water.
  • tip 3
