Refreshing watermelon margarita with fresh watermelon, tequila, and lime juice over ice - a delightful summer cocktail!
Ingredients:
  • 0.5 cup water
  • 3 strips orange zest
  • 2 cups cubed seeded watermelon
  • 0.75 cup white tequila
  • 0.25 cup lime juice
  • 1 pinch salt or sugar for rimming glasses
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • 2 cups crushed ice, or as needed
Instructions:
  • Create a fragrant orange-infused syrup by combining 1/2 cup sugar, water, and orange zest in a saucepan. Boil while stirring until sugar dissolves, around 3 minutes. Cool the syrup completely after removing it from heat.
  • Blend the watermelon until smooth in a blender or food processor.
  • Combine the watermelon puree with the simple syrup, tequila, and lime juice in a large pitcher.
  • Sprinkle a touch of salt or sugar onto a saucer. Rub the rim of margarita glasses with a lime wedge to moisten. Gently dip the rim of the glass into the saucer to coat it; shake off any extra salt or sugar.
  • Fill the rimmed glasses with crushed ice, then pour in the margarita mixture and garnish with lime wedges before serving.
