Margaritas are a popular drink, and there are many variations of the recipe.
Personally I am huge fan of cocktails that contain watermelon in the summer.
Not only are they refreshing but watermelon is kind of the fruit of the season and so easy to incorporate into all kinds of drinks.
Here are a few of my favorite cocktails with watermelon:

Frozen Watermelon Mint Margarita Ingredients
The classic margarita is made with tequila, lime juice, and orange liqueur.
Our version adds in watermelon instead of the liqueur.
Here is what you need:
- 5 slices watermelon
- 2 cups ice
- 2 oz tequila
- 2 sprigs mint
Equipment Needed To Make A Margarita
The only tool you’ll need to make this cocktail is a blender.
Personally, I have the Margaritaville Blender which is, of course, made for making these tasty frozen drinks.
You can also use regular ice if you want to make a watermelon mint margarita on the rocks instead of a frozen version.
How To Make The Watermelon Mint Margarita
- In a blender, add in four slices of watermelon without the rind.
- Reserve one slice for topping.
- Add in 2 cups ice and 1 sprig of mint.
- Add in tequila and blend well. Pour into a glass.
How To Garnish Your Watermelon Margarita
You can create an easy rim on your margarita glass with classic salt.
To do this, dip your glass in simple syrup or lime juice and then in the salt.
I used a mint sprig and a wedge of watermelon to garnish my drink.
