Such a refreshing drink!!
Watermelon-Cucumber Refresher
3 parts vodka (I used 1 1/2 ounces) [Note: tequila makes a great recipe variation too]
1 part (1/2 ounce) triple sec
1 part (1/2 ounce) watermelon-cucumber-mint juice*
1 part (1/2 ounce) fresh lime juice
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a watermelon and/or cucumber slice and/or a sprig of mint.
*Watermelon-Cucumber-Mint Juice
2 parts (I used 2 cups) diced, seeded watermelon flesh
1 part (1 cup) peeled, seeded cucumber

Whir all ingredients together in a blender. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer. Discard pulp.
