Everything I read on research into watermelon wine or brandy people mentioned to not bother and that it never turns out. Decided to buy and blend 6 watermelons and give it a shot anyways. I must say, my apple pie brandy was my go to crowd pleaser, but this? This easily overtook it! (Aside from the 3 hours of cutting watermelons, that was a pain)

I rarely ever drink, but I would try this, it sounds amazing I love melon.

If you’ve ever had dehydrated watermelon, it tastes almost exactly like it! and if you’ve never had it, I highly recommend trying it, it tastes like candy but isn’t that artificial watermelon taste like you’d get out of a jolly rancher lol

I've not tried that, but I'll keep my eye out for some, that sounds delicious!
