Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh watermelon
- 2 ounces Silver tequila
- 1 ounce Freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 ounce Orange liqueur (such as Cointreau or Triple Sec)
- 0.5 ounce Simple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Salt
- 1 unit Fresh lime wedge
- 1 cup Ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Cut the fresh watermelon into chunks and measure out 2 cups. Remove any seeds if necessary.
Step 2
Place the watermelon chunks in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain the watermelon puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl or measuring cup to remove the pulp.
Step 3
Prepare your serving glass by running a lime wedge around the rim and dipping it into a small plate of salt to create a salted rim.
Step 4
Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill it while you prepare the margarita.
Step 5
In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 ounces of silver tequila, 1 ounce of freshly squeezed lime juice, 1 ounce of orange liqueur, 0.5 ounces of simple syrup, and 2 ounces of the strained watermelon puree.
Step 6
Add a handful of ice to the shaker, securely close it, and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to mix and chill.
Step 7
Discard the ice from the prepared serving glass and pour the margarita mixture over fresh ice in the glass.
Step 8
Garnish with a small wedge of watermelon or a lime wheel on the rim of the glass for an extra touch. Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh watermelon margarita on the rocks!
