Watermelon margarita recipe

This Spicy Rosé Watermelon Margarita has all the elements to make a great cocktail.

The fresh, sweet flavor of homemade watermelon juice combined with tart lime and lightly spicy jalapeño infused tequila. Perfect when topped off with a generous pour of sparkling rosé wine.

Sparkling rosé adds a bit of sweetness and tons of sparkle to this take on the classic margarita.

Watermelon juice is a great swap for the orange liquor typically in margaritas – it lends amazing fresh flavor and a bit of sweetness.

Jalapeño tequila contrasts the sweetness with a bit of lingering spice. All of which just invites you to take another sip.

This recipe may seem fancy, but it’s super easy to make from just a handful of ingredients – even the homemade watermelon juice and jalapeño tequila are very simple to whip up.

Ingredients

• Watermelon juice – vibrant pink fresh watermelon juice made from only pureed strained watermelon.
• Jalapeño tequila – to make spicy chili infused tequila simply add fresh jalapeño slices to tequila and leave to infuse overnight.
• Lime juice
• Sparkling rosé wine
