Nothing says summer more than fresh watermelon and an ice-cold Margarita and in this cocktail the two come together. For this Watermelon Margarita you will want to remove all of the seeds in the fruit and it tends to work best if you give the watermelon a quick blend before adding the other ingredients to the blender. Also, if you want to get a little "wild" you could turn this into a Melon Margarita by cutting some of the watermelon and adding canteloupe, muskmelon or your favorite melon variety, it is the ultimate summer cocktail any way you do it.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 oz tequila
  • 1 oz triple sec
  • 1/2 oz lime juice
  • 1/2 cup seeded watermelon
  • 1 cup ice
  • watermelon wedge for garnish

Preparation:

  1. Pour the ingredients into a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth.
  3. Pour contents into a chilled margarita glass.
  4. Garnish with a watermelon wedge.
