First thing’s first. Before you start making the stuff that’s going to go inside of these fruits, you’ll first need a keg tapping kit. You can get one of those by clicking here.
These fruit tapping keg kits work on any large fruit, but today, we’ll be working with a pineapple and a watermelon. You can change these recipes to fit your taste, of course.
Let’s get started, shall we?
Watermelon Sangria
- 1 large watermelon
- 6 cups fresh watermelon (from the watermelon), cubed
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 750ml sparkling wine
- 1 cup vodka
- ½ cup lime juice
- 1 cup water
Slice the top off the watermelon and remove all of the fruit from the inside. Place on a ring from a mason jar on the bottom to keep the watermelon upright.
Slice a hole into the base of the watermelon with your fruit keg kit, then set aside. Place the watermelon fruit and your sugar in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain if desired.
Pour this into the watermelon, along with the sparkling wine, vodka, lime juice and water. Mix thoroughly. Enjoy!
Pineapple Punch
- 1 large pineapple
- 1 cup tequila
- ½ cup coconut rum
- 2 cups pineapple juice
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 ½ cups sparkling water
Slice off the top of the pineapple and remove the fruit from the inside. Just like you did with the watermelon, slice a hole in the base of the pineapple with the fruit keg kit.
Add your tequila, coconut rum, pineapple juice, lemon juice and sparkling water. Mix thoroughly, then enjoy!
