Summertime Watermelon Punch for a Crowd

“I attended a patio party years ago where the hostess had a clever watermelon ‘bowl’ with a scalloped edge and filled with this punch. It was the hit of the party, and she was kind enough to share the delicious punch recipe with me.” —Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas
