Skinny Spicy Watermelon Margarita Recipe

Watermelon is so refreshing on a hot Summer day. Here is a recipe that is sure to cool you off! If you aren’t a fan of spice, the jalapeno can be left out.

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup Silver Tequila

• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice. Equals about 1 small lime

• 3 jalapeno slices. Add more if you want more of a kick.

• 1 teaspoon agave nectar

• Ice for the shaker

• Sugar or salt for the rim

• Small seedless watermelon. To save time, I buy a container of pre cut watermelon in the produce department.

Directions

First you need to make the watermelon liquid mixture. Simply blend half to 1 cup of watermelon cubes. Strain the mixture, and then measure out the amount you need for the margarita.

On a small plate, put some sugar or salt to coat the rim. Use a lime wedge to wet the rim of the glass, and swirl the glass in the salt. Set off to the side,

Next fill your cocktail shaker with ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, watermelon juice, agave nectar, and jalapeno slices. Shake for about 20 seconds.

Strain the margarita into you glass and garnish with lime or watermelon. You can also add some jalapeno slices to float on top. If you would like to make it more sweet, add more agave nectar or a couple pinches of sugar.

ENJOY!

Cheers,
