Bourbon flavored! Kentucky Watermelon should be popular as a deluxe picnic treat, too. Just pack the whole melon in ice until you're ready to serve.
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized watermelon shopping list
- 1 pint and a half of good straight bourbon shopping list
How to make it
- Rest the melon on a rimmed tray or platter, then score diagonal gashes several inches apart all around the melon, cutting through the rind into the "meat."
- Take a sharp knife and cut out a conical plug from the top
- center.
- This cone should be about two inches in diameter and about six
- inches long when it is withdrawn from the melon.
- Place the tray with then melon in your refrigerator for at least an hour, maybe longer.
- Moisture will seep out during this process through the side gashes and will rise in the hole left by the cone.
- Pour off this liquid out of the cone and fill the hole slowly with straight bourbon.
- Return the melon on its tray to the refrigerator, chill thoroughly, and keep adding bourbon periodically.
- Serve the melon sliced, or as a coconut-garnished melon
- ball dessert.
