Steps:

• Cut melon lengthwise in half; remove and discard seeds. Scoop out melon halves, leaving 1-inch-thick shells. Chop removed melon; drain well. Cut thin slice off bottom of each melon shell to allow it to stand upright.
• Add boiling water to gelatin mix in small bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water.

Steps:

• Using a large chef's knife, cut the watermelon in half lengthwise through the stem. Trim a small portion from the underside of each half so it can sit on the work surface without wobbling. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Scoop out most of the flesh with a large spoon into a medium bowl, leaving about 1/8 inch of flesh above the white part of the rind (this will help the gelatin to adhere).
• Transfer the watermelon flesh and any juice from the bowl and rind to a blender and puree until very smooth, about 2 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth (or a coffee filter). Discard the solids and reserve the juice; you should have about 5 cups total.
• Measure 3 cups of the juice into a medium saucepan (save any remaining juice for another use). Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, whisk the watermelon-flavored and unflavored gelatin with the citric acid together in a large bowl, then whisk in the warm watermelon juice until all of the gelatin has dissolved, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the vodka until combined. Pour the gelatin mixture into the hallowed-out watermelon halves. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill until completely set, about 4 hours and up to 24 hours.
• Slice the watermelon in half lengthwise, then crosswise into small wedges. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Garnish melon wedges with star fruit and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.

Steps:

• Remove and discard seeds from melon halves; invert onto paper towels to drain.
• Cut thin slice from bottom of each melon shell to allow it to stand upright. (Or, place each melon shell in small bowl.)
• Add boiling water to gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to cold water to measure 1-1/4 cups. Add to gelatin; stir until slightly thickened. Remove any unmelted ice. Spoon gelatin evenly into melon halves. Pour any remaining gelatin into separate small bowl. Refrigerate several hours or until firm. Cut each melon half into 3 wedges to serve.

Steps:

• Slice the fruit cleanly in half lengthwise (through the axis).
• Carefully remove the pulp while keeping the half rind fully intact.
• Ensure that the rinds are dry (you can use paper towels to blot them).
• Set each half rind upright in a muffin pan so you can fill it with Jello.
• Mix the water with the gelatin (just like you would to make jigglers).
• You'll want the Jello a little firmer than the normal recipe as you have to slice it in half again.
• Make sure that the gelatin is well dissolved, and then pour into the fruit before it begins to set.
• Fill up as high as you can, the Jello will shrink a bit when cooling.
• Carefully transfer to the fridge and let set for about three hours, per box directions.
• When the Jello is set, place the fruit open-side down on a cutting board, hold it's shape with one hand and carefully slice in half lengthwise again to form quarters.
• Be careful not to smash the fruit as you'll want to keep the Jello intact (you may use a serrated knife).
• Ready to serve!
