 I’m melon, you melon? Remember the postwatermelon look you rocked as a kid? Juice dribbling down your sunburned cheeks, seeds stuck to your leg and hands as sticky as fly-paper? Cute, but not so attractive as an adult. So it’s nice to see that Sundia managed to bottle the stuff, and they didn’t just come up with some watermelon Jolly Rancher–flavored water—they juiced the entire melon, rind, skin and all, and created other fruit-infused flavors. That means if you’re a fan of that “white part,” you’ll love this watermelon juice. If you’re not sold, add some vodka and you’ve got a cocktail that puts airhead shots to shame. Get Snoop with it and mix in some gin or add Champagne to the blackberry and make a “Diddy Royale.” But skip the pomegranate; our tasting panel’s consensus was that “it tastes like a pet store.” We’re going to assume that’s not a good thing. Available at Whole Foods (www.wholefoods.com for locations) for $1.99 a 12oz bottle.—Heather Shouse
