Cocktail Saturday: Sunny Watermelon Margarita

Mother'sDaylunch2014bUSTDRINKA special kind of cocktail is needed as we celebrate the power and glory of the sun on this longest day of the year. We need summertime ingredients, a rosy color, and an icy taste that will leave you refreshed and energized. I’m going with Watermelon Margarita, one of my favorites.

Watermelon Margarita

Ingredients: 2 ½ cups of fresh watermelon cut into small chunks and with the seeds removed—place in a small baggie and freeze for two hours, 4 ounces tequila, 2 ounces Triple Sec orange liqueur, 3 tablespoons lime juice, lime wedge, coarse salt, fresh watermelon chunks for garnish.

Directions: Use the lime wedge to moisten the rim of a large cocktail glass and tilt the rim into the coarse salt all the way around to coat it.
Place watermelon chunks, tequila, Triple Sec, and lime juice in blender and puree until smooth. Pour into cocktail glass, and garnish with small watermelon chunks loaded onto a fancy toothpick. Sip and enjoy!

Happy Solstice!
Cheers & Happy Reading!
