Use equal parts of sugar and water.

1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water
Combine the water and the sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and simmer, stirring, until the sugar has completely dissolved and the syrup has thickened about 5 minutes.
Cool completely.
Use in all your cocktails and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month.

* To make a smaller batch of simple syrup use a lesser portion of sugar and water. Just make sure they are equal.

Can I puree the watermelon?
