How to Make Watermelon Margaritas

Margaritas are an easy thing to make, which is just makes me love them even more. It’s easy to switch up flavors and ingredients and come up with a delicious drink every time!

How to Make Frozen Margarita:

  1. Make fresh watermelon chunks by removing rind, seeds, and cubing the melon
  2. I recommend freezing the watermelon chunks for a couple of hours but it’s not necessary
  3. Combine watermelon and the rest of the ingredients in a blender, pulse until smooth
  4. Pour into a salt or sugar rimmed glass

Frozen Margarita Recipe

This frozen watermelon margarita recipe is so fruity and delicious! I love sipping on something coooold and icy in the midst of summer. A classic margarita is great, but there’s something about blended, frozen margaritas that makes you feel like you’re on a tropical vacation…especially if you add those cute little paper umbrellas, which I highly recommend. Sipping one of these by the pool on a hot summer day…I can’t think of anything better!

I wish I had one of these right now! I’ll just have to imagine sitting on a beach, looking out over the ocean (any ocean) instead of being here packing:-)
