Watermelon Margaritas
Ingredients Watermelon cubes, (if desired) salt 10 – 11 lime wedges 3 cups Triple Sec or other orange liqueur 2 – 3 cups tequila 1 ½ cups freshly squeezed lime juice 1 cup superfine sugar or powdered sugar 5 cups seedless watermelon, chopped Directions Step 1 If desired, freeze cubes of watermelon on a waxed paper-lined tray for 1 to 2 hours or until firm. Step 2 Place salt on a small plate. Rub rims of eight glasses with one of the lime wedges. Dip rims of glasses in salt to coat; set aside. Step 3 In a pitcher combine Triple Sec, tequila, lime juice, and sugar. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
