Beer and Watermelon Cocktail Recipe
- 1 (6-pound) watermelon
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup Creole Shrubb liqueur, or 3 tablespoons rhum agricole plus 1 tablespoon Cointreau
- 4 (12-ounce) bottles white beer, such as Hoegaarden, chilled
- Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large bowl; set aside.
- Remove the rind from the watermelon and cut the flesh into large dice.
- Place half of the watermelon in a blender and blend until liquified, about 1 minute.
- Pour through the strainer into the bowl and scrape a rubber spatula against the inside surface of the strainer to push the juice through until only pulp remains.
- Discard the pulp and set the strainer back over the bowl.
- Repeat with the remaining watermelon.
- (You should have about 6 cups of juice.)
- Add the sugar to the juice and stir until dissolved, about 2 minutes.
- Refrigerate until chilled, about 1 1/2 hours, or until ready to use.
- When ready to serve, transfer the chilled juice to a 3-quart container.
- Add the Creole Shrubb liqueur and beer and stir gently to combine.
