Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 oz blanco Tequila 1800 is my favorite!
- ¼ cup fresh squeezed lime juice
- ¾ cup watermelon juice (blending 1 cup of cubed watermelon will yield a little more than this)
- lime sparkling water If you need to fill the glasses up a bit more
- coarse sea salt or sugar for rim if desired
- agave syrup as needed, if you like your drink extra sweet. I did not feel the need to use this!
Instructions
- Blend the watermelon chunks in a high speed blender for 30 seconds. 1 cup of watermelon cubes will yield 3/4 cup juice.
- Combine the tequila, lime juice, and watermelon juice in a cocktail shaker with some ice.
- Use a lime wedge to wet the rim of two glasses, then dip them in salt or sugar for the rim.
- Fill the cups with ice. Shake and pour the watermelon flavored margaritas into the glasses, and top with lime sparkling water to fill glasses, if desired. Stir. Add a lime wedge for garnish, and enjoy this 1800 margarita!
Notes
Can I use another type of tequila? Absolutely - any blanco tequila will work for this recipe.
Can you save watermelon juice? Yes, it will last in the fridge for a few days. The sooner you use it, the fresher it will taste!
