The Honey Deuce is a refreshing cocktail featuring vodka, fresh lemon juice, and honeydew melon, topped with a splash of club soda. Garnished with melon balls, it’s a sophisticated and fruity drink perfect for any occasion.
In a glass filled with ice cubes, add the vodka, lemonade and raspberry liqueur. Stir well.
Garnish with melon balls on a cocktail pick.
To make melon balls: Cut a honeydew melon in half and scoop out the seeds. Use a melon baller (or measuring spoon) to carve out small spheres. You can make the melon balls ahead of time, as fresh melon keeps a few days in the fridge in a food-safe, airtight container.
Notes
Non-alcoholic Honey Deuce: In place of the vodka, substitute 1:1 a zero-proof spirit such as Ritual gin alternative or Seedlip Garden 108. For the Chambord, use raspberry simple syrup.
