Melon Mint Margarita

Melon Mint Margarita

This recipe has some extra steps to it, but they are well worth it! This Margarita comprises of fresh watermelon I cut up and froze, and fresh mint leaves to really make the flavors in the mixer pop. This is a perfect summer refresher. Recipe makes 2 cocktails

1 1/2 oz. frozen watermelon

4 oz. Tequila Ocho Reposado (I personally prefer reposado, but you can use blanco)

1 oz. Cointreau

1 1/2 oz. Watermelon Mint Mixer

2 oz. fresh squeezed lime juice

1 cup ice

2 leaves, yes, 2 leaves mint. One for each glass, muddled is plenty!

Tajin to rim glass and lime wedge to garnish

Rim glasses with lime and dip in Tajin, chill in freezer. Meanwhile add all ingredients to a blender, except mint leaves. Blend until fully incorporated. Take mint leaves, one in each glass and muddle slightly. Pour margarita concoction into chilled glasses and OMG, ENJOY!!! This one is probably one of my best yet. Just saying.
