Ingredients

  • 4 heaping cups of watermelon chunks about ½ a watermelon
  • 1 cup Everclear
  • ½ cup fresh lime juice about 3 limes
  • 1 ¼ cups sugar
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • ½ cup-1 cup Watermelon Pucker

Instructions

  • Combine watermelon chunks and Everclear in a glass jar with lid.
  • In a small pot, combine lime juice, sugar, and water. Over medium heat, stir until sugar is fully dissolved (no need to bring it to a boil). Remove from heat and allow it to cool down.
  • Pour simple syrup into the jar.
  • Allow it to sit in the refrigerator overnight or up to 48 hours.
  • Pour contents of jar into a bowl and mash the watermelon with a potato masher, then strain mixture back into the jar.
  • Add in ½ cup of the Watermelon Pucker. Shake, taste to see if the flavor is to your liking. If not sweet enough or watermelon tasting enough add in additional Watermelon Pucker.
  • Store in your freezer until ready to enjoy.
  • Note: Always leave headroom in the jars for expansion. The mixture should not truly freeze up, however, err on the side of caution. Freeze overnight (or longer).
