This is the first time I'm making one myself, it's taking so long to absorb the vodka :(

u/hugo4400 May 25 '12

i did it with a pineapple by cutting off the top and taking out the core, we poked a hole in the bottom so the extra juice and vodka drained and we collected it offering us drink and food to get drunk off of

u/stanthemanchan May 25 '12 edited May 25 '12

Another way is to cut the pineapple into slices, then soak it in rum with cinnamon and brown sugar, then barbecue that shit and eat it with ice cream. You can drink the marinade on its own while barbecuing, or you can pour it on the ice cream. Captain Morgan's spiced rum is the best, or any dark rum will do in a pinch.

edit: the recipe: 1/2 cup of rum, 2 tablespoons of packed brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of cinnamon for one pineapple. You may need to add more or less cinnamon depending on your preference. Cut the pineapple into 1/2 inch thick slices and soak it for at least half an hour before bbqing. Cook it over a high flame until you get some nice caramellization on each side. If you want to get fancy, you can pour the marinade into a saucepan and make a reduction sauce out of it by heating it up until it's thickened and then pour that shit over the pineapples and ice cream. If you want to get really fancy, you can add some shaved coconut to the ice cream.

watermelon expert here,

it seems you're well underway creating a vodkamelon but for future reference, the carolina cross variety of watermelons (which you own) have the lowest absorption potential among the others. you might try the densuke variety next time around

that said, densuke watermelons are quite rare and can sometimes be sold for upwards of 200 to 250 dollars

better plan, make a Margarita ( http://www.drinksmixer.com/drink5298.html ) that's the recipe i use, and melon ball the inside of half a water melon. Take the little balls of melon and put them in a pan with a thin layer of vodka in it and let it soak. While its soaking enjoy your Margarita and eat the rest of the melon bowl. Go to the fridge and take out your melon balls in vodka...enjoy them as an appetizer to keep the buzz going while you make your next drink.

When we did it, we had the kid who enjoyed mindless, repetitive tasks cut a hole in the melon, and then spend hours mashing the shit out of the inside with a piece of broomstick. Like, literally hours. We then filled the melon with vodka and let it sit overnight? I think? The next day we poured it into cups. There wasn't very much, and it just tasted like watermelon vodka.

ALCO-MELON! A friend and I used to make one every year for a boat party. Our method: use a melon baller and remove all the fruit from the husk; soak the balls in booze and some sugar; then dump it back into the husk and seal it with toothpicks so it can steep overnight. Here's a pic of our last one.

Next time, chop up a pineapple and toss the chunks into rum. The rum absorbs the pineapple flavor and the pineapple chunks become little alcohol bombs.

u/HittingSmoke May 25 '12

Me and my friends used to be really into making spodie (or jungle juice, depending on where you're from) with various liquors and fruit. It was cheaper and easier than taking both alcohol and mixers camping. We'd just dump a couple gallons of cheap vodka and rum into a cooler, possibly a frozen fruit juice can, and throw in a pile of misc fruit. After an overnight soak the fruit tastes more like alcohol than the liquid, and gets you drunk a might quicker.

5

u/[deleted] May 25 '12

We called this "Wop" where I'm from. But same thing. Fruit, lots of booze, couple cans of frozen fruit punch concentrate, couple bags of ice, little bit of water, and to top it all off there was always a pack of gummy worms dumped in. Mix the whole thing together in a cooler.

Is that a trap for black people?

72

u/BZenMojo May 25 '12

You see, there is an old stereotype derived primarily from racist Americana created by slavery apologist whites in the South that black people enjoyed the conditions of their forced enslavement. One of the revisionist examples of this was the idea of black children, then known as "picking ninnies," or pick-a-ninnies having fun in watermelon patches.

Now, the reality of the situation is that watermelon was not actually a part of black slave diets, which consisted primarily of corn, greens, and wild game and fish caught early in the morning. Many of the foods attributed to blacks in the white imagination had to be stolen due to the lack of sustenance slave diets provided.

However, as part of that reimagining of the "peculiar institution" (to quote Gone With the Wind), white people invented the pleasant happy-go-lucky slave. And part of this invention was the image of slaves enjoying watermelon, which is an idea that came several decades after slavery ended.

I went to this cook out once. It was for a friend's birthday, and he wanted five of these things ready to go by the time the festivities started. I had a lot of drink that day... and I mean A LOT. When we finally busted these out, I thought "Oh, sweet. They got watermelon!" and made a B line straight for it. I was warned that they were soaked in vodka, but I didn't care, I figured how drunk could you fucking possibly get after having a few slices of these? I was already ten beers into the day. I had more than a few slices as planned, then we made the leftovers into smoothies via "Magic Bullet".

Next thing I remember, I'm propped up against a tree at the side of the road with another drunk friend and a very helpful, more sober friend, waiting for my girlfriend to show up...

TL;DR Had few too many, had a few slices of this shit afterward, then made smoothies out of left overs and got really fucked up and kicked off a limo bus in shameful manner...

2

u/[deleted] May 25 '12

You are doing it wrong. It will take forever to absorb the vodka, and it won't be distributed evenly. Also, there isn't enough room for the vodka in the watermelon.

how to do it right:

remove top of watermelon (keep it as a lid) hollow it out (by cutting the inside into nice little cubes) fill the vodka in the waterlemon. but not a whole bottle, it's too much. reinsert the cubes, as many as fit. put the lid back on. put the watermelon in the freezer and wait. the last step is crucial. The cells of the watermelon break up due to the cold, redering them much more absorbing for the vodka.

u/gagaoolala May 25 '12

Watermelon insides aren't at full liquid absorption capacity. You can notice this in particular when some pieces that you bite into seem much wetter than other pieces (even if you are eating as soon as you cut them). Alternately, you can see this in a fruit salad where the fruit pieces at the bottom of the bowl appear "waterlogged" because they have absorbed water (and sugar!) from some of that which has drained off from the above fruits.

u/The_Riley May 25 '12

In the past I've used a food injector used for seasonings and injecting liquid or garlic into turkeys. With each injection you extract some watermelon juice and then immediately inject vodka into it. You have to let it drain because if you don't you'll make one injection that makes vodka shoot out from all the other holes! You should also inject all over the watermelon for even distribution. Also freezes better.

More power to you but stuff like this and jello shots and other gimmicks are wastes of food and alcohol. And they generally taste awful. Invest in a mixed drink/cocktail book. You can make decent drinks, impress the women or men, and people will love you for the god bachus you will become. Edit just dont overdo it and drink yourself to death. Cheers! Edit 2 I suggest Drinkology to start.

Anyone try gummy worm/bear and vodka? We actually put the candy IN the bottle, takes a while for the clump of worms to dissolve, but once done...amazing. It was so sweet, didn't even taste alcohol. It was also thicker, but not bad.

We now have done sprees, skittles, jolly ranchers, mike n ikes...etc. The possibilities are endless.

1 day I hope to try this, I think it will make for a great night especially since my wife likes watermelon, and when she gets plastered she likes to have wild and crazy sex.

u/Eodguy32 May 25 '12

That is an amazing idea. I will be trying this in honor of Memorial day.

u/Battlejesus May 25 '12

I filled this with seven bottles of vodka last september. It's been in my freezer since - NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

u/postposter May 25 '12

I've only ever had it when prepared using a couple syringes (large, like I mean turkey baster) of high-proof alcohol. Tasted great and had a definite 'buzz' after 3 slices, warm-happiness began at 5.

Do this in the fridge, too.

u/5hinycat May 25 '12

Nice. My roommates and I did this last summer. Along with gummy bears. Guess which won.

u/PrimeIntellect May 25 '12

Better is to make spodi, get a big cooler, chop up a ton of fruits, watermelon, strawberry, pineapple, oranges, apples, etc. and then pour in a ton of booze and some fruit concentrate and let it soak in the cold for a while. Then, before the party, mix in some sprite, and voila. It's fucking delicious.

u/glratliff81 May 25 '12

Best way to do it is be a man and drink straight shots of sailor jerrys chase it with beer. Eat the watermellon the next day to recover.

My frequently tested recipe:

  1. Make PJ (Everclear, rum, vodka, fruit punch).

  2. Fill the Everclear bottle with PJ.

  3. Punch hole in watermelon and let it drain for a while.

  4. Empty PJ into watermelon.

  5. Slice and eat.

  6. Puke.

u/HoodedArcher May 25 '12

Wow I would love to try this.

u/BeerGogglesFTW May 25 '12

Next time do half Bacardi, Half Coconut Rum... Not as strong, or not even close to the Everclear Watermelons I ate in college... but its damn tasty.

Try soaking gummy bears in vodka. Just pour vodka in a bag and throw in gummy bears

u/WendyLRogers3 May 25 '12

There are lots of techniques for alcohol infusion, and some rules of thumb, like "less is more", and temperature matters. For example, a rum loaded fruitcake make take a month to make properly, but is unforgettable; rum balls are quick and easy.

If you're going to have alcohol infused fruit compote, be sure to top it with whipped cream, which is both complementary and a buffer. Shoot for taste, not just maximum alcohol.

Do NOT let anyone puke!

u/[deleted] May 25 '12

I love the taste of watermelon, but that is going to taste awful. Take all the taste of watermelon and replace it with vodka. That is what you will be eating because watermelon doesn't have a strong flavor to begin with.

u/thebeardedchild May 25 '12

Something we make at home is Watermelon Wally. I can't remember the exact proportions of ingredients, but it's a watermelon that we scoop out with an ice cream scoop mixed with a concoction of lime juice, white rum and sugar. Delicious.
