Nothing is better poolside then an icy watermelon margarita. Frozen cubes of watermelon are pureed with tequila, orange liqueur and lime juice. If you prefer your margaritas with a little kick, feel free to add a half a jalapeno or chipotle to the blender. This cocktail is great for a crowd so if you're planning a Memorial Day barbecue, watermelon margaritas should be on the menu.
