Rihanna's Recipe 4 Tequila-Soaked Watermelon.
Nothing like sitting outside for some delicious watermelon. I like to eat my watermelon with salt. I remember Grandmama (Great-Grandmother) had a watermelon patch and it was the best watermelon in the world. But let’s take it up a notch…Tequila Soaked Watermelon.
Here’s the recipe:
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Total Time: 1 Hour
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 small seedless watermelon, red or yellow, quartered and cut into 1-inch-thick wedges
- 1 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup tequila
- 1/4 cup Triple Sec
- 2 limes, halved or cut into wedges
- Flaked sea salt or coarse salt
Directions
-
Arrange watermelon in a single layer in two 9-by-13-inch baking dishes. Bring sugar, water, tequila, and Triple Sec to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly. Pour syrup over watermelon wedges, and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes.
-
Remove watermelon from syrup, and arrange on a platter. Squeeze limes over melon, and season with salt.
