WATERMELON VODKA

This is a really funny thing I saw an American friend of mine make. Great for a barbie or party. Wish I'd known about this when I was going to school parties-I could have walked in with my watermelon and got all my mates completely sloshed! Needs to be started a few days-even a week-before you can plan to eat it.

Time P2D

Yield serves 15 to 20

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 large, ripe watermelon--give it a smell and slap to check for ripeness
1 bottle best quality vodka (or even champagne)

Steps:

  • Simply cut a hole in the top of the melon, wide and deep enough to insert a funnel. Pour some of your chosen alcohol into the melon through the funnel, leave to sit for a day and pour in some more. The flesh will absorb the liquid, so pour in some more the next day--basically until it becomes saturated. When ready to serve, slice up into nice big pieces and get all your mates plastered on it!;

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy watermelon.
  • If you don't have fresh watermelon, you can use frozen or canned watermelon.
  • To make a non-alcoholic version of this spritzer, simply omit the vodka.
  • You can garnish this spritzer with a slice of watermelon, a sprig of mint, or a lime wedge.
  • This spritzer is best served chilled.

Conclusion:

The Watermelon Vodka Spritzer is a refreshing, flavorful cocktail that is perfect for summer parties and gatherings. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its combination of sweet watermelon, tart lime, and sparkling vodka, this spritzer is sure to be a hit at your next party.
