Refreshing summer drink from cooking.com. I wasn't able to find the Triple Citrus tequila, so just used the regular flavored.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups watermelon, seedless, 1-inch chunks
4 lime wedges
kosher salt, on a small plate
3/4 cup triple citrus tequila or 3/4 cup any good-quality tequila
1/2 cup triple sec
1/3 cup fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Place the melon chunks in a plastic bag, and freeze until solid.
  • Run the lime wedge around the rim of a large stemmed cocktail glass. Dip the moistened rim in salt. Set the lime wedge and glass aside. Repeat with the remaining wedges and 3 more glasses.
  • Transfer about 3/4 of the melon chunks, separating them, to a blender. Add the tequila, triple sec, and lime juice, and blend until fairly smooth. Divide the cocktail mixture among the prepared glasses. Squeeze a lime wedge into each cocktail, drop the wedge into the glass and serve immediately.
  • TEQUILA TIP:.
  • For an extra touch of color and flavor, mix 2 teaspoons finely minced lime zest (colored peel) into the salt before rimming the glass.
