This pandemic changed everything in a snap. A whole 360 degrees changed from everything we used to. But looking at the bright side of life, we continue. And for those days that we were not able to go out, I made my restaurant and bar at home. I have found amazing cocktail recipes and this one of my favorite. I get to tweak it whatever way I want. Most of the time, I just sit by the window or by the pool and sip this refreshing, semi-sweet, easy watermelon margarita while reminiscing the good old days.
Ingredients
2 cups cubed seeded watermelon
2 cups crushed ice
⅓ cup tequila
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup lime juice
1 tbsp vodka
1 tbsp orange liqueur
HOW TO MAKE JUICY-SWEET EASY WATERMELON MARGARITAS
Step 1: In a blender, add the watermelon, ice, tequila, sugar, lime juice, vodka, and orange liqueur. Blend well until combined.
Step 2: Pour this into glasses. Enjoy!
NOTES:
When made without alcohol, this can be considered an amazing drink for kids to enjoy, too.
I love this drink on its own. But when I am feeling fancy, I salt the rim of my glass. Simply rub a lime wedge on the rim of an empty glass, dip the rimmed part of the glass onto coarse salt or kosher salt. Fill the glass with ice, add in the watermelon juice mixture, then, mix in the vodka.
You are welcome to tweak this recipe until you find the right flavor according to your liking, For a sweeter cocktail, add some watermelon and lime juice for that extra splash. For more tartness, squeeze in some extra lime. And if you want your margarita to be spicier, add some extra jalapenos and let it rest of a couple of minutes. The varieties are endless, tweak this as much as you want.
