Fresh watermelon, lime, and tequila blend together perfectly in these delicious summery Watermelon Margaritas!
One thing I love about summer is summer cocktails (including watermelon margaritas!). BBQ’s, cookouts, potlucks…whatever you want to call them, they are all great excuses to make a fun cocktail! Usually I love making margaritas with berries (love these Super Easy Strawberry Basil Margaritas), but I thought since watermelon is everywhere during this time of year, I would give it a go. Mixing sweet watermelon with lime juice and agave, along with the alcohol, really was a winning combination. These watermelon margaritas could be served on the rocks (my favorite!) or blended.
I made this recipe two ways and included them in the recipe below. I wanted to make one for convenience and when serving several people (the pitcher), and one for if you just want 1-2 cocktails (the shaker version).
I actually preferred the version made in the pitcher, with the frozen limeade, however the shaker version was good as well. The watermelon really soaks up the tequila here, so make sure to eat those for a boozy treat!
- 16-18 oz Tequila
- 1 can of frozen limeade (plus 2 cans of water)
- 4 cups cubed watermelon
- 1/2 lime , sliced in rounds
-
Place watermelon into a blender. Add limeade, water, and tequila. Blend until smooth. Pour into pitcher and add lime rounds.
-
Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.
-
Before serving stir well and pour over ice to serve.
