For the fans of the reality TV show Jersey Shore, ron ron juice will already be well known. It's a tasty berry and watermelon concoction that's made with vodka. Ron-ron juice is simple to make. You need to measure out the ingredients and add them to a blender. However, with a less powerful blender, you may run into issues with the watermelon. You may have to pause and stir ingredients if your blender stalls.

Ingredients

  • 8 cups seedless watermelon
  • 12 oz/350ml cranberry juice
  • 1 1/2 cups of blueberries
  • 1 jar of maraschino cherries
  • 1.5 cups vodka
  • Ice

Steps

Adding Your Ingredients

  1. Slice your watermelon. Before adding your watermelon to the blender, you will need to slice it. Set your watermelon on a cutting board and then slice it in half lengthwise. From there, cut each half in half to quarter the watermelon.[1]
    • Cut one quarter at a time into one to two inch wedges. Slice off the rind at the end of the edges.
    • Cut all the wedges into roughly even cubes. Cut smaller cubes if you have a less powerful blender.[2]
    • Measure out the cubes until you have eight cups of watermelon.[3]
  2. Add your vodka and cranberry juice. You want to add the liquids to the bottom of the blender. This helps ingredients blend smoother. Pour in your vodka and cranberry juice to start.[4]
    • It does not matter which liquid you add first. You just need liquids at the bottom of the blender.
  3. Add the cherries, watermelon, and blueberries. Fruit should be added next, so add the watermelon, blueberries, and cherries. As liquids go best nearest the bottom, try adding the cherries first as the jar will have some juice in it. This may help the drink mix faster.[5]
  4. Add the ice. The amount of ice you add is optional. It is to cool off the drink and give it a chunkier texture. A cooler, chunkier drink will require more ice. If space is an issue, use less ice to avoid overfilling the blender.[6]

Blending Your Ingredients

  1. Start on pulse, if possible. If your blender has a pulse setting, start by using this. Many people assume they should begin at the highest setting, but this will actually make the drink mix slower. Start with the pulse setting to get your ron-ron juice to mix quickly.[7]
    • Keep pulsing the drink until things are beginning to mix smoothly. Fruit should stop getting stuck on the bottom and all the ingredients should be swirling together.
  2. Increase the speed gradually. Once things are blending, increase the speed to low. Blend the juice on low for 20 to 30 seconds. Then, increase the speed to high for an additional  20 to 30 seconds.[8]
  3. Keep blending until the ingredients are mixed. When you're done, everything should be mixed together smoothly. You should be left with a smoothie-like mixture. There should be no chunks of fruit remaining your ron-ron juice.[9]

Dealing with Blender Issues

  1. Cut fruit into small pieces if you have a weak blender. A powerful blender can mix ingredients more easily. If you're working with a small blender, without a lot of different speed settings, cut your fruit into very small pieces. This can help your juice mix smoothly even if your blender is on the weak side.[10]
  2. Pause and push around the ingredients if necessary. Even strong blenders sometimes slow down, especially when dealing with ingredients like fruit. If your blender is stalling, turn it off. Then, use a spoon to push the ingredients around. This should loosen things up and get your blender working again.[11]
  3. Rinse your blender immediately. The longer you let a blender sit with dirty ingredients, the harder it will be to clean. You should rinse your blender under running water after using it. If the blade is detachable, remove the blade and rinse it separately.[12]
  4. Serve and enjoy!

Tips

  • While it's safe to eat watermelon seeds, this drink is smoother without them, so try to find seedless watermelon or use pieces that you have already deseeded.
  • If your blender isn't large enough to fit all of the watermelon and ingredients at once, blend in rounds, then mix everything together in a pitcher before pouring.

Warnings

  • Be sure to let guests know that this drink is alcoholic. Due to its sweet taste, some people may not realize this.

Things You'll Need

  • Cutting board and knife
  • Large blender
