Ingredients (4 ingredients)

1 piece largeseedless watermelon
750 milliliter tequila
750 milliliter orange liqueur
2 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice

Preparation (5 steps)

Prepare the Watermelon

Wash the outside of the watermelon thoroughly and place it on a plate to prevent rolling. If necessary, slice off a small portion of the rind to create a flat, stable base.

Create Bottle Inserts

Carefully trace the outlines of the tequila and orange liqueur bottle lids onto opposite sides of the watermelon. Using a sharp knife, cut out the traced circles to create openings for the bottles.

Infuse the Watermelon

Insert the tequila and orange liqueur bottles into the prepared openings in the watermelon. Ensure the bottles are securely in place. Do not disturb the watermelon for 48 hours to allow the flavors to infuse properly.

Prepare Lime Juice

Thermomix® Setting

5 sec/Speed 5

Squeeze the lime to extract the juice. Pour the lime juice into the mixing bowl. Secure the lid and blend for 5 seconds/speed 5 to ensure even consistency.

Slice and Serve

After 48 hours, carefully remove the liquor bottles from the watermelon. Cut the watermelon into slices. Drizzle the freshly squeezed lime juice over the slices. Serve immediately or chill for later enjoyment.
