Method

1.
Prepare the watermelon | Choose which side will be the bottom of the watermelon; if it doesn’t stand up straight, use a knife to slice a very small sliver off the base | Once it’s standing upright, cut horizontally across the middle | Take off the top and keep it for another recipe.
Scoop out all the watermelon flesh and seeds from the bottom half until the inside looks neat | Transfer the flesh to the food processor (or use a stick blender and a bowl), then pour into a large bowl through a sieve to remove any seeds | Pour into a jug.

2.
Make the drink | Pour the watermelon juice, rum, lime juice, orange juice, sugar and white rum into the food processor | Blend again to mix the liquid together before adding the ice cubes - blend again until you have a slushy-like consistency | Add more orange juice if needed
-
3.
Serve the drink | Pour the mixture into the hollowed out watermelon and add fresh berries | Put straws into the mixture and enjoy
