Preparation
Watermelon is cut in half, and the interior flesh is either scooped out using a melon baller or cut into small pieces with a knife. Then, the seeds are removed.[3] The hollowed watermelon rind may be cut decoratively and used as the serving bowl for the finished hwachae.[1] Watermelon juice, sweeteners like sugar and honey and sometimes water is also added to the punch.[1] To complete the preparation, scooped or sliced watermelon pieces, bits of other fruits, and ice cubes are put in the bowl. Occasionally, soju is thrown in the mix as well for an alcoholic punch.[4]
