SOUR WATERMELON JELL-O SHOTS IN A WATERMELON RIND
You've probably seen watermelon rinds filled with Jell-O; our version takes the idea a bit further. Here we use the watermelon juice from the scooped-out watermelon, spike it with a splash of vodka, and give it a sour flavor so it tastes just like your favorite candy. The result is an adult-friendly summer party pleaser.

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:
- In a blender or food processor, puree enough watermelon to get 1 cup of juice. (The water content is so high in watermelon it's very easy to get that much juice) I used half of a small watermelon. Strain the watermelon puree so you get out all the seeds. Pour the watermelon juice in a saucepan (no heat yet). Sprinkle on two packets of Knox gelatin. Let it sit for a few minutes then whisk it until it's combined. Turn on the stove-top to medium heat. Add 4 tablespoons of sugar and whisk until combined. When simmering add one cup cold water. Pour your watermelon mixture into a 9×13 pan that has been lightly (very lightly) greased. Refrigerate until firm (2 hours or so). Chop some fresh mint leaves. Pour 1 cup water into a saucepan (no heat yet) Sprinkle on two packets of Knox gelatin. Let it sit for a few minutes then whisk it until it's combined. Turn on the stove-top to medium heat. Add 4 tablespoons of sugar and whisk until combined. When simmering add one cup cold white rum. Add your chopped mint into your rum mixture then pour into your 9×13 pan. Refrigerate until firm (2 hours or so). With a cookie cutter of choice (I started with a square as you can see, but then decided on the triangle) slowly cut out your jello shots. Press down slowly and make sure you don't have any mint leaves caught on the cutter when you move on to the next.
