Spicy Watermelon Margaritas
When life gives you watermelons, make margaritas! This delightful concoction combines the sweetness of ripe watermelon with a hint of spice that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance. Here’s how you can whip it up!
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh watermelon, cubed
- 1 cup tequila
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/4 cup agave nectar
- 1-2 jalapeños, sliced (adjust based on your spice tolerance)
- Salt and chili powder for rimming the glasses
- Lime wedges for garnish
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- First things first—grab that watermelon and cut it up into cubes. It’s time to sweeten things up!
- In a blender, toss those luscious watermelon cubes in along with the tequila, lime juice, and agave nectar. Blend until it’s as smooth as a jazz saxophonist.
- Now, slice up your jalapeños. If you like it spicy (and who doesn’t?), throw them into the blender and blend again for a few seconds. If you prefer a milder drink, you can also add them directly into the mix later.
- Select your favorite glasses and rim them with a mixture of salt and chili powder for that extra oomph! Just run a lime wedge along the rim first, then dip it into the salt-chili blend.
- Fill each glass with ice cubes, and pour that fabulous watermelon mixture over the top, filling it to the brim!
- Garnish with a lime wedge and a few slices of jalapeño for good measure. You want your drink to look as fabulous as it tastes!
- Now, take a step back and admire your handiwork. Then, take a sip! Enjoy the sweet and spicy explosion of flavors.
