Hey Guys and Gals! A vodka infused with pureed watermelon and sugar.
Ingredients
2 cups of vodka
2 cups pureed watermelon, no seeds (about 1/4 of a medium watermelon)
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
Directions
1. Remove the seeds and rind and chop the watermelon into pieces that fit your blender.
2. Blend the melon and sugar for about 15 seconds, or until the sugar has dissolved.
3. Pour the puree into a lidded container, add the vodka and cover.
4. Steep for a week. The refrigerator is the safest place for fresh melon.
5. Strain through several layers of moistened cheesecloth, gently wringing it. Strain once more through a coffee strainer if needed.
6. Return the liquid to the jar and age another month in a cool place.
