If you use fresh juiced cantelope and alot of lime, and use Melon Vodka, Mango Rum and just a splash for the color of Watermelon Schnapps you wont go wrong. This is my signature drink. You don't want to taste the sweet liquor just the cantelope and good liquor. Trust me over summer this is the drink d'jour.

Good, but it can be too sweet if you use more than a dash of Midori.

The mild cantaloupe was kind of overpowered by the strong watermelon vodka.
