You&#8217;ll need 8 cups of 1-inch cubes, so half of a large watermelon should be enough.

Our watermelon margarita recipe is a fruit-forward cocktail, so opt for blanco tequila over the more golden a\u00f1ejo tequilas.

If you prefer drinks with a smoother pour, blend the watermelon on its own, then pass it through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. Then, pour the strained juice into a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/the-best-cocktail-shakers-for-your-home-bar\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/the-best-cocktail-shakers-for-your-home-bar\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cocktail shaker<\/a> with ice and the rest of the ingredients, and shake until chilled, about 20 seconds.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use a salt rim:<\/strong> The sugar rim keeps things sweet, but if you like a sprinkle of salt on your fresh watermelon slices, use a salt rim on watermelon margaritas for the same effect.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Give it an herbal twist:<\/strong> Watermelon and basil pair so well together. Gently muddle a few fresh basil leaves in the bottom of the glass to release the oils, then pour the watermelon margarita over the leaves. Or make a basil-infused <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-simple-syrup\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-make-simple-syrup\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">simple syrup<\/a> to swap for the sugar. Use about 3 ounces, or more or less depending on the level of sweetness you prefer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Can you store watermelon margaritas?<\/h2>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t made the frozen version, yes. An on-the-rocks margarita will last in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, as long as there are no ice cubes in the glass or pitcher. We don\u2019t recommend storing the frozen version of this drink because it will taste watered down.<\/p>\n<h2>Watermelon Margarita Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1955367\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Watermelon-Margaritas_FT24_134005_EC_011024_6_MSedit.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"A pitcher of watermelon Margaritas with limes\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How do you make this a skinny watermelon margarita?<\/h3>\n<p>To cut the calories or refined sugars in this margarita, there are a couple changes you can make. Use fresh-squeezed, no-sugar-added orange juice instead of the orange liqueur, and skip the optional added sugar in the drink.<\/p>\n<h3>What can I use if I don&#8217;t have Triple Sec?<\/h3>\n<p>Triple Sec is an orange liqueur that can be replaced with any other brand of orange liqueur. Cointreau and Grand Marnier would be the next best swaps\u2014just note that the different liqueurs vary in flavor, which will make the margarita take on sweeter or warmer tastes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Upgrade a classic lime margarita with this watermelon margarita recipe.
