Margaritas are one of my all-time favorite cocktails. I whip up a watermelon version in the warmer months that’s a total hit in the Bauer house (I cannot make them fast enough). You can also skip the alcohol for a yummy lycopene-rich mocktail.

Puree watermelon in blender for about 30 seconds, or until it becomes watermelon juice. Add lime juice and tequila and blend for another 5 seconds. Pour watermelon margarita into 2 glasses and add 3 to 4 watermelon “ice cubes” into each.
