This Watermelon Moscow Mule Float was inspired by a photo of a watermelon float. It was simply blended watermelon with vanilla ice cream and 7-Up.

The recipe, from Cafe La Trova in Miami, was a simple mix of rum, lime, sugar, and absinthe, and I have yet to try a drink that follows the formula of Daiquiri + something-else-delicious that doesn’t impress.
