Ingredients:
  • 2kg seedless watermelon, halved, rind removed
  • 70g (1/3 cup) caster sugar
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) fresh lemon juice
  • 750ml (3 cups) chilled ginger ale
  • 375ml (1 1/2 cups) chilled vodka
  • 750ml (3 cups) chilled sparkling wine
  • 1 bunch fresh mint, leaves picked
Instructions:
  • Prepare a baking tray lined with non-stick baking paper. Cut half of the watermelon into 2cm pieces and arrange them in a single layer on the tray. Freeze for 1 hour or until firm.
  • Roughly chop the rest of the watermelon and blend until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine sieve into a jug, gently pressing with a spoon. Chill the juice in the fridge before serving.
  • Combine sugar and lemon juice in a punch bowl or large serving jug, stirring until sugar dissolves. Add watermelon juice, ginger ale, vodka, and wine, stirring until well combined. Mix in mint and frozen watermelon pieces.
