Watermelon Drink?

[Toni]

So, what's this I hear about a new drink served in a Watermelon??? Really?

[kim221998]

Eww a watermelon?? I cant stand watermelon! Yuck!

[Toni]

Ohhhhhh.... a cold watermelon in the heat of summer? How could you hate that? Watermelon juice dripping down your arm and plopping in the sand - smell of suntan lotion and salty breeze... it's the taste and sensation of my days growing up on the beach.

I guess some folks won't like it, but us locals will slurp it up ... can't wait to get back to PC and try one!

[kim221998]

LOL...I've been told I'm not a true Southerner for not liking watermelon...same thing said bout me not liking grits and other stuff..(although I was born and raised in Bama)...but I've just never liked the taste of it. Give me a good cantelope any day(my weakness!), but I'm gonna stay away from the watermelon..lol

[Toni]

Ha! Well... I have to admit that one reason I like the watermelon better than the cantelope is... ok, forgive me... but you can spit a watermelon seed a LOT further than a measly little cantelope seed! (smile)

[kim221998]

LOL...that's funny Toni....I hear that's also a true Southern thing, but I gotta admit, I've never tried seed spitting...lol. Of course I don't eat the watermelon at all, but even when I eat cantelope, I scoop all the seeds out ahead of time...lol.

I bet it tastes like some purrsimmon brandy.......

I wish I had some watermelon right now. I can't believe I haven't had one yet this summer. I can spit a seed with the best of them.

Hey they got lots of them at wallmart.... they better when they are real cold with lots of salt on them peices....

I don't have to pay for mine. I live out in the country and several neighbors have watermelon fields. I just have to go get them.
