Our Watermelon Punch is a delicious, refreshing addition to any cookout, BBQ, or get-together. 

If you wish, use the watermelon rind itself as a creative bowl for the punch! To make a watermelon serving bowl, cut the top of the watermelon off about 1/6 of the way down. Cut the bottom end enough to make sure the watermelon will stand on it’s own. Scoop out flesh.

You could certainly make this an adult-only beverage by adding alcohol. Follow the recipe, but add vodka as desired.

Ingredients
6 cups watermelon juice (see note)
2 cups pineapple juice
1 can (12 ounces) frozen raspberry juice blend
1 can (6 ounces) frozen orange juice concentrate
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a large pitcher or punch bowl and serve over ice.

Note: To make watermelon juice, cut up one 10-pound oblong watermelon. Process small chunks of watermelon flesh, seeded, in a blender or food processor until chunks turn to liquid.

Make more than you need for this punch, freeze the extra in ice-cube trays, and use watermelon cubes to chill the punch.

(You can also use watermelon juice instead of water when preparing frozen lemonade or limeade.)

Watermelon is the Cucumber family; therefore, highly nutritious; (Cucurbitaceae includes cucumber watermelons and other gourds );

Hi Paul, if you print the watermelon punch recipe, the note which describes how to make watermelon juice appears on the print copy. Hope this helps!

If you don't have a juicer, you can simply place chunks of watermelon (no seeds) in your blender and blend, it will make a thick juice. If you want it a little thinner, just let the pulp settle and pour off the top. Then you can add some strong lemonade and ice to the pulp and make a great slushie.

The recipe for Watermelon Punch in the recipe section sounds wonderful. The recipe, however, calls for 6 cups watermelon juice. Immediately after this ingredient there is in parentheis the notation "see note." But there seems no note to be seen. Any suggestions?
