I’m a nerd and like kitchen toys and gadgets.  I decided to buy a whipped cream dispenser and try to make different types of espuma for the bar.  First up is watermelon!

Watermelon Espuma – 1 liter

4 cups of watermelon juice
6 gelatin sheets (1 tablespoon powdered gelatin)

Blend or juice 4 cups of watermelon juice.  In a small saucepan, heat 2 cups of watermelon juice and bring to a simmer.  Add 6 sheets of gelatin and remove from heat.  Stir to dissolve and add remaining juice.  Strain juice and refrigerate.  Pour into dispenser and refrigerate for 3-4 hours.  Charge with c02 (2 for liter).

Watermelon Margarita with Watermelon Foam

1 oz Cointreau

2 oz Sweet & Sour or (Agave + Lime Juice)

1 oz Watermelon Espuma

In a shaker fill with one scoop of ice.  Add Patron, cointreau, sweet & sour and cover then shake vigorously.  Strain into glass and finish off with watermelon foam.
