Refreshing Watermelon Lime Margaritas
Ingredients
- granulated sweetener and lime zest for rim of glasses (optional)
- 1 cup watermelon chunks
- juice of 1 lime
- 1.5 oz tequila
- 0.5 oz Grand Marnier
- 2-3 slices jalapeño
- sparkling mineral water
Preparation
Add watermelon, lime juice, tequila, and grand marnier to a blender and purée until smooth.
Let the mixture sit for a few minutes while preparing the glasses. Wet the rim with lime juice, dip in the lime zest and sweetener mixture, and fill with ice and gently muddled jalapeño slices.
During this time, the watermelon mixture may separate with a frothy layer on top. Optionally, spoon off and discard this layer.
Pour the remaining mixture over ice, stir to combine, and top with sparkling mineral water.
Garnish with an extra jalapeño and watermelon chunk.
