A Full-Proof Watermelon Shot
The 99 Brand idea is simple: fruit schnapps flavours at a proof most liqueurs never approach, made for the freezer and the shot glass. Watermelon is one of the line's summertime pours — sweet, juicy and unmistakably melon, with enough tartness at the end to keep it from going soft. Pour it alongside the rest of the range on our liqueurs shelf, browse the wider spirits collection, or see the line on the 99 Brand vendor page.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Sweet watermelon candy and fresh melon. Palate: Juicy, sweet watermelon at full strength. Finish: A tart edge over the sweetness, with the warmth of 99 proof.
How to Enjoy
Serve it as a bold, freezer-cold shot, or add a splash to sparkling hard seltzer for a watermelon spritz — the serve the brand's own distributor copy leads with.
