Watermelon Cocktail

Nothing could be easier or prettier than a watermelon cocktail!

We got four watermelons today in the test kitchen - Audrey wanted to dehydrate them, and I am reaaaaaally looking forward to that. We had half of a big watermelon left over. We also had tequila. And so watermelons cocktails happened without any documentation except for photos of a pretty drink and the watermelon carnage that resulted.

Ingredients:
  • half a large seedless watermelon (enough to fill a blender - maybe 5-6 cups?)
  • 2-3 shots tequila
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar
  • citrus juice - we didn't put any in today, but I bet lime would be perfect.
  • two handfuls of ice cubes
Chop the watermelon up and pop it into a blender. Add the tequila, sugar and ice cubes. Blend well. 

Taste it and add more tequila or sugar as needed. 

Enjoy! I was really pleased with this - it was super refreshing. :D

I think next time I make these I'm going to add mint and lime - wish I would have had it on hand today!
