Hello, new member here!
I'm having a house party on Halloween
I'm making watermelon kegs, I have two watermelons
One water melon is in the fridge, been untouched.
The other one, I cut a hole at the top (in a lid-type fashion) and spooned out all the seeds and about 90% of the flesh (thin red layer across inside, still)
Cut a hole on the side near the bottom and then proceeded to snugly fit a spigot in, it was all secure I filled watermelon with water (to test) no leaks, the liquid came out spigot very nicely. Took the spigiot and all liquid out, placed the 'lid' back on and placed in the freezer.
Now, my question is this... Once I take the watermelon out the freezer on Halloween and it has been left out a few hours to thaw out fully, will it rind still be hard and secure like it is before frozen? Because obviously I'll be putting booze inside it and if the ring was to break the alcohol would go everywhere and be wasted
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time reading this. Acey.
