A watermelon gazpacho is what you make when you became the victim of believing you picked the perfect watermelon. That’s how I came up with a dessert that’s normally served as a Spanish savory soup with tomatoes and cucumbers. I went a different route and used mangoes and agave to make this a new summer classic.
gazpacho Cooking Tips:
Pick a watermelon with a yellow belly for the best watermelon ever. You can add 1 cup of vodka, sparkling wine or champagne to make it adult friendly.
Can you make ahead?
Fridge: Gazpacho will be good for 3 days max in the fridge, if covered in an airtight container.
