How to make a Watermelon Tap

By DIY Maven

Summer feels like a long way off, which makes this watermelon tap even more appealing! You probably have most of the supplies you’ll need to make one on hand, with the exception of a few things more familiar to plumbers rather than Martha-wanna-be’s. But I digress.

What you need:

10-pound seedless watermelon
Sharp knife
Big spoon
Big bowl
Drill with a 1/2-inch drill bit
3/4-inch ball-valve faucet with a handle that's easy to turn with one hand
PVC-to-faucet adapter that will screw into the back of the faucet
Rubber O-ring that fits the back of the faucet
Blender
Sieve
Pitcher
1 1/2 cups rum
4 limes
About 90 minutes of your time
