Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Whole seedless watermelon
- 1 cup Peach schnapps
- 1 cup Vodka
Instructions
Start by washing the watermelon thoroughly to remove any dirt or residue from the skin.
Place the watermelon on a flat surface and use a sharp knife to cut a 2-3 inch circular hole on the top of the watermelon. Set the cut piece aside as it will serve as the lid later.
Using a spoon or melon baller, carve out a small hollow inside the watermelon under the lid area (do not remove too much flesh; this is just to create a cavity for the liquids to flow into).
Insert a long skewer or knife gently into the watermelon through the hole to create channels inside the fruit. This will help distribute the liquids evenly.
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of peach schnapps and 1 cup of vodka. Stir well.
Using a funnel, pour the peach schnapps and vodka mixture slowly into the hole at the top of the watermelon. If the liquid starts backing up, pause for a few minutes to let it absorb before continuing.
Once all the liquid has been added, replace the cut-out lid piece on top of the watermelon.
Place the watermelon upright in the refrigerator and let it infuse for at least 12-24 hours. This will allow the alcohol mixture to fully soak into the fruit.
When ready to serve, remove the watermelon from the refrigerator. Cut it into wedges or cubes and serve chilled.
Optional: Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a sprinkle of sea salt for added flair.
