MELON-MINT VODKA
Why should food have all the fun? Let liquors take a turn with fresh, seasonal ingredients. You'll find the results are perfect for making summer cocktails in a snap. This infused booze is great simply mixed with seltzer or ginger ale, but try it in a Melon Mule for something special.

WATERMELON VODKA
This is a really funny thing I saw an American friend of mine make. Great for a barbie or party. Wish I'd known about this when I was going to school parties-I could have walked in with my watermelon and got all my mates completely sloshed! Needs to be started a few days-even a week-before you can plan to eat it.

Steps:
- Simply cut a hole in the top of the melon, wide and deep enough to insert a funnel. Pour some of your chosen alcohol into the melon through the funnel, leave to sit for a day and pour in some more. The flesh will absorb the liquid, so pour in some more the next day--basically until it becomes saturated. When ready to serve, slice up into nice big pieces and get all your mates plastered on it!;
