Watermelon Margaritas

Watermelon Margaritas

Ingredients:

  • 2-3 cups fresh watermelon

  • 4 ounces white agave tequila

  • 1 ounce fresh lime juice

  • 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup (optional - if you like more sweetness)

  • 6-8 leaves of fresh mint, muddled

  • Slice of watermelon + fresh mint for serving (optional)

Instructions:

In a blender, combine the watermelon, tequila, lime juice and maple. Blend until smooth. (Straining is optional to get rid of any pulp, but we don’t bother!)

Add the mint to the bottom of two glasses and muddle the mint using a muddler (or the bottom of wooden spoon).

Fill the glass with ice and pour the watermelon mix over the ice.

Garnish each glass with a watermelon wedge and fresh mint leaf.

CHEERS!
