Frozen Watermelon Margaritas
What better way to enjoy the fresh taste of watermelon this summer?
Ingredients
• 5 cups cubed watermelon, seeds removed
• 1/2 cup simple syrup (equal amounts sugar and water, heated until sugar melts), cooled
• 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
• 2 cups silver tequila
• 4 ounces orange liqueur
• 2 ounces melon liqueur
• Watermelon wedges, for garnish
Directions
Place watermelon in a food processor and process until smooth. Pour the pureed watermelon into 2 empty ice cube trays and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. Place 8 martini glasses in the freezer to chill.
Place 2 cups of the watermelon ice cubes and the remaining ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into 4 glasses and repeat with the remaining ingredients. Garnish each glass with a watermelon wedge.
Cheers!
