To make this drink suitable for non drinkers, omit alcohol and increase the pineapple juice to 1 cup. I like to add the ice to the blender also..n drink it like a slushy.

Steps:
- Place the watermelon, pineapple juice, rum, liqueur and grenadine in the jug of a blender and blend until smooth.
- Divide the ice among serving glasses.
- Pour over watermelon mixture to serve.
Tips:
- Choose ripe watermelon: The best watermelons for this recipe are ripe and juicy. Look for ones that are deep red in color and have a sweet smell.
- Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the mai tai. Avoid using bottled lime juice, as it can be bitter.
- Don't overshake the cocktail: Overshaking the cocktail will dilute it and make it watery. Shake it just until the ingredients are combined.
- Garnish with a watermelon wedge and a lime wedge: This will add a festive touch to your mai tai and make it even more delicious.
Conclusion:
The Watermelon Mai Tai is a refreshing and delicious cocktail that is perfect for summer parties and gatherings. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a tropical cocktail to enjoy, give the Watermelon Mai Tai a try!
