How to convert UUID value to string

Question

I want to generate unique session id for my session. So i used UUID. Here what i did

if (session == null) {

    session = httpServletRequest.getSession(true);
    session.setAttribute("logedin", "0");

    if (!httpServletRequest.isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie()) {

        UUID sessionID = UUID.randomUUID();

        Cookie sessionCookie = new Cookie("JSESSIONID", "sessionID");  //problem

}

The Cookie constructor accept two strings, how can i convert my UUID to string so it get the UUID value which is unique? Thanks
