How to Make German Melonenbowle Melon Wine Punch
- Halve a 6-pound watermelon, remove seeds, and scoop out the flesh using a melon baller. This should yield approximately 6 cups of melon balls.
- Place watermelon balls in a large (6-quart capacity) clear glass punch bowl or bowle pitcher.
- Halve a 3-pound honeydew melon, remove seeds, and scoop out the flesh with a melon baller. This should yield approximately 3 cups of melon balls.
- Add the honeydew melon balls to the watermelon balls. Pour 1 (750ml) bottle of dry white wine (Riesling or similar recommended) over the fruit.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Just before serving, add 1 (750ml) bottle of chilled dry white wine and 1 (750ml) bottle of chilled champagne or sparkling wine to the fruit mixture.
- (Optional) For a visually stunning presentation, carve designs into the rind of the watermelon before scooping out the flesh. Use this rind as a unique serving bowl! (If using the rind as a bowl, transfer soaked fruit to the chilled rind just before serving.)
- Serve immediately in small glasses with fruit picks for easy access to the delicious melon.
