Ingredients
- 4 cups ripe cubed watermelon
- ½ cup white tequila
- ¼ cup triple sec
- ⅓ cup fresh lime juice
- 1-2 tablespoons honey, to desired sweetness
- 1 heaping cup ice
- Limes and small watermelon slices for garnish
- CHILI RIM SALT - 1 tablespoon ancho chili powder
- CHILI RIM SALT - 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- CHILI RIM SALT - 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Instructions
Make watermelon juice by filling large blender with cubed watermelon and blend until juiced. Add tequila, triple sec, lime juice, honey and ice to watermelon juice and blend again until smooth. Make chili salt by adding chili powder, salt and sugar to a shallow plate and mix to combine. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each rock glass. Invert your glass and dip the top into the chili salt mixture, tilting the glass slightly to completely coat the surface. Set rimmed glasses aside. You can pour directly or strain margarita mixture into your prepared glass and garnish with a fresh lime wedge and watermelon wedge.
