For best results, choose a ripe but firm watermelon. Avoid watermelons with soft spots or blemishes. If you're using a liquor with a strong flavor, start with less and add more to taste. To prevent leaks, ensure the funnel is securely inserted into the watermelon. Keep the infused watermelon refrigerated until serving to maintain its coolness and freshness. Consider using a flavored rum or other liquor to add an extra dimension of flavor.
