Watermelon Done Right: De-Seed Like a Pro

Step 14 Ambrosia?

Mash up all the leftover scraps of watermelon and discard the remaining seeds and pulp (or toss on to a compost pile).

Pour the watermelon juice into a tall glass, add ice, and enjoy!

Look closely at the photograph - those are not ordinary ice cubes! They are cubes of frozen, pure watermelon juice.

Delicious!

Slaver is good! Thanks for the compliment.

I was recently served punch at a meeting made with Ginger-ale and Frozen Water Melon chunks. The Chunks absorbed the Ginger-ale and froze it inside the fibers of the melon chunks. Man that was heavenly.

[MiltReynolds]

That does sound good! Thanks for the tip. I enjoy ginger ale, and adding the melon cubes is an intriguing idea!

[Shiftlock]

Wow, that looks amazing. Two ounces of vodka or white rum and a squeeze of fresh lime juice with a lime-slice garnish would make it PERFECT!

[MiltReynolds]

Aha! A bartender among us! Yes, that does sound delicious!

Humm... One of that is all I want now, the intense red color suggests a very sweet juice.

[MiltReynolds]

Oh! It is so sweet! I didn't doctor the photos up at all. A good watermelon really is that deep red color. Right now, this instant! Get down to the market and find a watermelon. Do it for you!
