Refreshing Watermelon Ginger Spritz

This Watermelon Ginger Spritzer is a refreshing and light cocktail perfect for hot summer days. The combination of fresh watermelon, zesty lime juice, and ginger syrup creates a delightful and invigorating flavor. Topped with sparkling water and served over ice, this spritzer is a fantastic non-alcoholic option, but adding a splash of vodka can easily transform it into a boozy treat. Garnish with a sprig of mint for an extra touch of freshness.
