SUMMERTIME WATERMELON PUNCH FOR A CROWD
I attended a patio party years ago where the hostess had a clever watermelon "bowl" with a scalloped edge and filled with this punch. It was the hit of the party, and she was kind enough to share the delicious punch recipe with me. -Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas

Steps:
- Place the watermelon in a food mill fitted with the largest disc set over a medium bowl and process. The food mill will separate the seeds and the pulp from the juice; you should have about two cups of juice. Pour into a pitcher and discard the seeds and pulp. Stir in the vodka, Cointreau, and lime juice.
- Fill a cocktail shaker half-full with ice, pour in the cocktail mixture, and shake it for a full 30 seconds. Pour into chilled martini glasses and garnish each glass with a sprig of mint. Serve ice cold.

Steps:
- Cut a thin slice from the bottom of the watermelon rind (but 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 lid, as you would when carving a jack-o'-lantern.
- To prepare with an immersion blender: Set the watermelon in the sink (to avoid splashes). Remove the lid and insert an immersion blender into the flesh. Gently push and move the immersion blender down and around in the watermelon to puree the center. As more of the watermelon becomes pureed, move the blender to the sides to puree almost all of the flesh, leaving a thin wall of flesh lining the rind. Pour the pureed juice out of the watermelon; you should have between 6 and 7 cups.
- To prepare with a drill: Fasten 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 push the beater into the flesh. Gently push and move the beater down and around in the watermelon to puree the center. As more of the watermelon becomes pureed, move the beater to the sides to puree almost all of the flesh, leaving a thin wall of flesh lining the rind. Pour the pureed juice out of the watermelon, and strain, discarding any pulp and seeds; you should have between 6 and 7 cups of strained juice.
- Insert a tap in the empty watermelon according to the package directions. Pour the watermelon juice, wine and vodka into the watermelon and top with the lid. Refrigerate until the watermelon and punch inside are well chilled, at least 2 hours.

WATERMELON PUNCH
Squeezing lemons and limes into watermelon juice and adding some seltzer produces a sparkling watermelon punch. It's a cut above lemonade. Keep a pitcher of it on ice for summer afternoons.
