This spicy watermelon margarita is a sophisticated twist on a fruity margarita. The sour formula is the root of many cocktails, including margaritas and mules, perhaps because it’s so easy to remember and so simple to adapt. All you need: 1 part sweet, 1 part sour, and 2 parts alcohol.
Ingredients
- 2 cups seedless watermelon cubes
- 1 lime wedge
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- ice cubes
- 1 ½ fluid ounces silver tequila
- ¾ fluid ounce orange-flavored liqueur (such as Cointreau®)
- ¾ fluid ounce lime juice
- 1 thin slice jalapeno slice, plus more for garnish
- 1 watermelon wedge
Directions
Step 1
Puree watermelon in a blender. Wipe the rim of a margarita glass with a lime wedge; dip rim in salt.
Step 2
In a cocktail shaker half-filled with ice, add tequila, orange liqueur, lime juice, jalape?o, and 2 ounces of the watermelon puree. Shake until very cold.
Step 3
Strain into prepared glass. Garnish with watermelon wedge and jalape?o slice.
Tips:
Instead of salt, you can also use coarse white decorating sugar for rimming.
