Now that you’re hyped up, let’s dive into what you’ll need to whip up this delightful concoction:

Ingredients:

• 1 medium-sized seedless watermelon
• 1 cup of fresh lime juice (about 8-10 limes)
• 1 cup of sugar
• 4 cups of high-proof grain alcohol (like Everclear)
• 2 cups of water
• Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Got your ingredients lined up? Great! Now let’s get to the fun part—making that moonshine!

Instructions:

1. Start by cutting the watermelon in half. Use a spoon or a melon baller to scoop out the flesh and put it in a blender. Make sure to reserve one half of the watermelon shell for serving.
2. Blend the watermelon until it’s nice and smooth. You want a nice liquid consistency.
3. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and 2 cups of water over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved, creating a simple syrup. Remove from heat and let it cool.
4. Once the syrup is cool, mix it with the watermelon puree and fresh lime juice in a large pitcher.
5. Next, carefully add the grain alcohol to the watermelon mixture. Stir well to combine all those fabulous flavors together.
6. Pour the mixture back into the reserved watermelon shell. If it doesn’t fit, just keep it in the pitcher for pouring later!
7. Chill it in the fridge for at least 4 hours, but overnight is even better! Let those flavors mingle and get happy.
8. Serve it up in glasses over ice, garnished with fresh mint leaves to give it that extra pop.

Now you’re ready to sip on this amazing Watermelon Lime Moonshine! Perfect for BBQs, picnics, or just chilling in the backyard with your crew. Enjoy responsibly and cheers to good times!
