If you love eating watermelon, you should also know how to make good use of the watermelon rind. If you want to turn a watermelon rind into a cool drink dispenser, the method is actually very simple.
You can pour either plain water or juice into the watermelon drink dispenser, and it will stay naturally cool without needing a refrigerator. Let's continue and learn what tools and materials are needed and how to make it.
You will need one watermelon, one drink dispenser spigot (faucet), one sharp knife, and one ice cream scoop. When choosing a watermelon, you can pick either a seedless watermelon or one with seeds.
Step (1)
After washing the watermelon thoroughly, slice off a small piece from the bottom of the watermelon so that it has a flat base and can stand upright.
Step (2)
Once you've sliced it, try to see if the watermelon can stand upright. If the base isn't stable yet, trim off a bit more.
Step (3)
Cut off about 3 inches from the top of the watermelon, then scoop out the flesh using an ice cream scoop. Make sure to scoop out the flesh completely and cleanly, so there's no blockage at the spigot opening.
Step (4)
To create the hole for the spigot, make a small "X" shaped cut near the bottom of the watermelon. Then, carve out a small circular opening. This circle should match the size of the spigot exactly — it shouldn't be much larger than the spigot.
Step (5)
Once the hole for the spigot is made, insert the spigot slowly and carefully. Be very careful so that the watermelon doesn't crack.
Step (6)
Once the spigot is successfully and completely installed, you can blend the watermelon flesh you scooped out earlier into watermelon juice and pour it back into the dispenser, or you can simply fill it with cool water — either way works well.
And there you have it — your very own homemade watermelon drink dispenser! This drink dispenser can also be used as a decorative piece at parties and other events.
