Watermelon Margaritas Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Shandy / All my dishes 1 year, 4 months ago Use a good tequila to steep watermelon chunks in. This watermelon-infused tequila will keep in your refrigerator for a long time. Beautiful in the glass and there is not a strong boozy flavor to this drink. More soft and summery =D Prep:15m Servings:12	Shandy

Ingredients

For the Watermelon-Infused Tequila:

1 medium-size seedless watermelon

1 750-ml bottle of silver tequila

For the Margarita:

4 oz. of the watermelon-infused tequila (from above)

2 oz. frozen limeade

2 cubes of the infused watermelon (I also add 2 to 4 cubes of fresh watermelon to this)

1 1/2 oz. Cointreau or Grand Marnier

Watermelon wedges

Directions

For the Infused Tequila: Cut a watermelon into 1-inch cubes (rind removed) until you have roughly 2 lbs. of fruit. Transfer to a glass jar, pour in tequila, seal jar, and let steep for 2 days.

To Make Drinks: Combine the watermelon-infused tequila, 2 cups crushed ice, frozen limeade, infused watermelon, and Cointreau or Grand Marnier in a blender. Puree until slushy. Garnish with watermelon wedges.

Ahhhhhhhh - the recipe I've been waiting for you to post...wow, is that EVER a beautiful drink in the glass - what a great presentation with the rich, red watermelon slice, too. I have to try this - maybe for the engagement party here the end of August (wonder if I could make them ahead and keep it in the freezer - bet I could)...fantastic post, Shandy - I am soooooo glad to see you back on here with your wonderful recipes and pictures...I've missed you!
