Watermelon Margarita

Nothing beats a fresh margarita, especially a watermelon margarita! This cocktail is light, yet refreshing, and a little strong because, well, tequila! Super simple and easy to make. Great cocktail to make when entertaining guests or for those hot summer days/night when you need a cool refreshing adult beverage. I hope you enjoy and as always, I love to hear your thoughts!

Description

Watermelon Margarita

5 oz Watermelon Juice (About 3 cups cubed watermelon, pureed.)
1 oz Fresh Lime Juice (Fresh is best, but if you don’t have limes use lime juice in a bottle)

1/2 oz Agave (Or Simple Syrup (optional))
Margarita Salt
Lime Wedges (Garnish)
Cocktail Shaker
Ice

Instructions

1
Take the cubes of watermelon, and puree it. I used my Nutri-Bullet and blended for about 20 seconds. Set aside.
2
Fill your shaker ¾ with ice. Measure and pour 5 ounces of watermelon juice into the shaker.
3
Next add the agave, lime juice and tequila. Shake for 30 seconds or until fully mixed.

Take a lime wedge across the rim of two glasses. Dip the rim of the glasses in salt.
