Seedlip: The Secret to Sophisticated Non-Alcoholic Cocktails

Simply blend, strain, and shake your way to a mocktail that’s far from ordinary.

Easy Steps for the Freshest Watermelon Cocktail

For optimum flavor, use ripe, in-season watermelon. Muddle or blend it into a juice, then strain for a smooth, vibrant drink base. Combine with Seedlip, lime, and a hint of sweetener if desired, then shake vigorously with ice. Serve over crushed ice and garnish with fresh mint or watermelon wedge for a professional touch.
