Summer of Vermouth

SERVES 10

“This is a fun summer punch,” says Shaun Byrne. “Just scoop out the flesh from the watermelon and blitz it in a food processor, then pass it through a sieve and you’re ready to go. To make your watermelon vessel, cut a third off the top, then cut that piece in half, and you have a stand for the watermelon to sit on. Tequila and watermelon are a match made in heaven, and the wormwood fragrance of Absentroux brings the whole thing together.” Begin this recipe a day or two ahead to make the blueberry verjuice.
