Dianthum
- 1 large watermelon
- 1 (750 ml) bottle champagne
- Refrigerate watermelon and champagne of your choice (we prefer sweet champagne) overnight.
- Remove watermelon from the fridge and slice in half.
- Scoop the meat into a large bowl.
- Place the watermelon flesh into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- If there is not enough room, blend a portion at a time.
- Strain the watermelon puree through a wire strainer (I use a metal tea strainer) into a see-through container.
- Chill for one hour.
- You will notice the remainder of the pulp will settle, leaving a pale pink upper layer.
- Ladle the upper watery layer into a pitcher.
- Discard the hot pink lower layer.
- Continue to chill your new pitcher, if desired.
- In champagne glasses, pour one part champagne, one part watermelon juice.
- Servings vary.
- Enjoy!
