Watermelon lime Margarita

Margaritas have always been a go to drink for me in the summer time. Officially the calendar doesn’t say summer yet but the heat has arrived, the sunscreen is applied and a watermelon lime margarita is poured.

This recipe for a watermelon lime margarita is one of my favorites and I’m so excited to share it with you. as always be sure to drink responsibly. be safe and have fun. This recipe can be made with frozen watermelon to give it the frozen blended texture or use fresh watermelon over ice for a wonderfully fresh taste.

Margaritas have defiantly become a drink I love to make and try new flavors. I love this one already and have a Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita that is sure to hit that sweet, salty, and spice tooth we didn’t know we had but love now that we do.

Ingredients you will need

• Frozen or fresh watermelon – this carries the flavor so be sure to pick a good one
• Limes – ads a contrasting tart flavor to the drink
• Tequila – what all good margaritas are made of
