Watermelon Cocktail With Tequila Spiked Ice Cubes Recipes

WATERMELON AND SILVER TEQUILA COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Place half a cup of the watermelon chunks into a glass and begin to muddle until broken down. Then add the remaining half of the watermelon and again muddle until broken down. Add the sugar and muddle until everthing is broken down as much as possible. You could of course just put it into a blender, but why dirty up another thing to clean up.
• Next pour in the tequila and give it a good stir, then add the lime juice and again stir. Add the ice cubes then pour in the sparkling water and carefuly give the drink a stir to combine.
• Enjoy!!

TEQUILA WATERMELON SPRITZER

Steps:

• Fill a wine glass with ice.
• Add tequila and watermelon juice. If unable to purchase locally, simply place about 1 cup of seedless watermelon cubes into a blender and pour through a fine-mesh sieve. (For bigger batches, put 3 or 4 cups of watermelon cubes into blender. Stir before using for refills.) We recommend then including a squeeze from one large lime wedge to offset any sweetness and compliment the tequila, if desired.
• Top with your chosen bubbles. We recommended sparkling rosé, Prosecco, or Topo Chico. (If serving just one portion, sparkling water might be the most efficient choice. If making multiple, pop a bottle!)
• Garnish with a watermelon wedge and mint, if desired. Enjoy!
