Cut a large watermelon into ice cube-sized chunks (approx. 1½ inches). Place cubes on a parchment or waxed paper-lined tray spaced apart and freeze for 2 hours or just until frozen. If you’re not using them for a while, put cubes in an airtight container and store them in the freezer.

Now, you're going to want to make your lime syrup: Combine 1 cup sugar, ¼ cup fresh lime juice, 1 bunch of fresh mint, and ¾ water in a medium saucepan and heat on medium until sugar dissolves. Let sit while cooling. Once cooled, strain into a container with a lid and refrigerate.

When that's done, add watermelon chunks to a blender with ½ cup of lime syrup (the total amount should be approximately 6 cups). Blend until the consistency is that of a slushy. Add 1 cup Nolet's Silver Gin and stir. Pour into a glass, and garnish with watermelon, mint, and a sprinkle of black sesame seeds.
