Ingredients

1watermelon,small or medium
3mint leaves,fresh, plus more for garnish
1soju
2cupsice

Instructions

Using a sharp knife, cut the watermelon to make a flat surface. Set the watermelon upright and cut off the top to expose the flesh.
Scoop out the flesh with a large spoon into a large bowl. Make sure to not go all the way through the bottom of the watermelon–this will be your serving vessel.
Use an immersion blender or transfer to a standing blender to blend the watermelon flesh for 1 minute, until smooth. Strain the watermelon juice through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean large bowl or pitcher to remove the pulp.
Thinly slice the mint leaves, then add to the watermelon juice, along with the soju, and stir to combine.
Pour the watermelon soju mixture into the hollowed-out watermelon shell and fill the rest of the way with the ice.
Garnish with more mint leaves, if desired. Serve cold.
