Watermelon Punch Keg.
DISH COURTESY OF FOOD NETWORK COOKING AREA.
Level: Intermediate.
Total: 2 hr 20 minutes (consists of chilling time).
Active: 20 min.
Yield: 6 to 10 servings.
Ingredients.
One 20- to 25-pound seedless watermelon.
One 750-milliliter bottle increased white wine.
1 1/2 cups orange vodka.
Directions.
Special equipment: an immersion mixer or a drill with an adjustable chuck and beater from an electric hand mixer; a tap.
Cut a thin piece from the bottom of the watermelon rind (however not into the flesh) so the watermelon will sit upright. With a sharp knife, carve out a circle in the top of the watermelon to make a cover, as you would when sculpting a jack-o'- lantern.
To prepare with an immersion mixer: Set the watermelon in the sink (to prevent splashes). Remove the cover and insert an immersion mixer into the flesh. Gently push and move the immersion mixer down and around in the watermelon to puree the center. As more of the watermelon becomes pureed, move the mixer to the sides to puree nearly all of the flesh, leaving a thin wall of flesh lining the skin. Pour the pureed juice out of the watermelon; you ought to have in between 6 and 7 cups.
To prepare with a drill: Attach one beater from an electric hand mixer to the tip of a drill and tighten the chuck. Set the watermelon in the sink (to avoid splashes) and press the beater into the flesh. Carefully push and move the beater down and around in the watermelon to puree the center. As more of the watermelon ends up being pureed, move the beater to the sides to puree practically all of the flesh, leaving a thin wall of flesh lining the skin. Pour the pureed juice out of the watermelon, and pressure, discarding any pulp and seeds; you ought to have in between 6 and 7 cups of stretched juice.
Place a tap in the empty watermelon according to the package instructions. Put the watermelon juice, red wine and vodka into the watermelon and top with the cover. Cool until the watermelon and punch within are well chilled, a minimum of 2 hours.
