I’m not sure who needs to hear this but, a watermelon Margaritas may be one of my favorite drinks this summer! Not only is it so refreshing but, the combination of sweet watermelon and anejo tequila really completes this drink! I used Anejo tequila which is a smokier flavor of tequila but you can your favorite tequila for this recipe as well.

Instructions

1. Cut watermelon into small cubes, add them in the jar of a blender. Process until smooth. Strain watermelon puree through a fine mesh sieve if you want a smoother consistency. I personally didn’t strain mine, it was still so good.
2. Rim the margarita glass with salt, you can replace salt with sugar or tajin.
3. Add all ingredients to the cocktail shaker cover and shake vigorously for at least 20 seconds. Pour margarita into prepared glass. Enjoy!

Notes

• You can also use diced frozen watermelon for a frozen Margarita.
• Non alcoholic watermelon margarita: Offer fresh watermelon juice with any number of mix-ins, including lemon lime soda, watermelon or lime flavored seltzer water or even club soda.
• Make ahead instructions: Prepare the watermelon juice and refrigerate up to three days in advance. When ready to make a margarita, dump ingredients into shaker and serve over ice.
