Try Malibu rum - the end result (not kidding) tastes kind of like cotton candy! Serve while still cold.

Jeez...bringing back memories. We used to cut a small lid & then hollow out the melon. Strain the juice discard the meat and return the juice to the shell, with a can of frozen lemon/lime & a quart of vodka or gin and a pile of crushed ice. Put the lid back on, plunk it on the beach with a pair of sunglasses & a ball cap with a few lengths of rubber tubing & well *hic*

We decided to cut the watermelon into chunks and "marinate" it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours in Smirnoff Watermelon flavored vodka since my DH said that this way is pretty messy (he is the former party animal of our family! LOL) Everyone loved it although I thought the alcohol taste would be disguised a little more effectively!

We had this at our 4th of July party and it was a hit! I used coconut rum and it was great!

I've tried several different liquors, everclear, vodka, and rum. I prefer the flavored vodka, and also letting it soak overnight in fridge. Also, if you are gonna cut it up, add cherries, they are good soaked in vodka.

Let it soak for as long as you possibly can- adding a handle of vodka to a watermelon for about 45 minutes tastes horrible. Rather like eating watermelon out of a small pool of vodka.

I loved this and so did my guests. I will also try the watermelon - cut up - soaked in the vodka, because it was a little tricky to slice the watermelon when we were ready to serve it.

I made this for last months girls nite and the ladies loved it. But instead of pouring the rum in the watermelon, I cut the melon into bite sized chunks and marinated it overnight in Pineapple flavored rum. I then made a punch out of Melon Verdi & Ginger ale and drained the rum off the watermelon and added the melon to the punch. It was the best summer drink we ever had.

This was a big hit at a recent BBQ. We cut the watermelon up into chunks and soaked it in rum and a bit of watermelon martini mix for a little extra flavor. It was great, especially the last few pieces left soaking in the rum all night. When you go to serve it, the colder the better on this one.

Hmmm... this didn't work as nicely as I expected. My watermelon was not absorbing the alcohol so I had to take the funnel out and directly insert the bottle into the watermelon. I am not sure how much actually made it in there. Besides all of that, it was quite tastey. Definately serve cold. Once it is room temp the alcohol flavor becomes strong. If I do this again I will let cut up watermelon soak in a bowl of alcohol. I think more would be absorbed rather than wasted.

We used Pure Grain because we didn't want to taste the alcohol, we just wanted to taste the fruit and shall I say "feel the drink?". This fit the bill nicely. Thanks :)

We used vodka for this but I think next time we'll need to add more because none of us could really taste the liquor. Really good though and thanks.

this has been a staple at every outdoor and/or summery gathering i hold or go to for years. if you want something really wild, try it with half citrus vodka and half watermellon schnapps. the taste keeps people coming back for more, and the drunken hilarity that's sure to follow makes it definitely worth it.
