A trip to Texas this past spring turned me on to jalapeño margaritas, and a recent dinner at Besito put watermelon margaritas on my mind. When Breville sent me one of their powerful blenders to try I thought this was the perfect time to combine the two! It’s got the tang of lime, the heat from the jalepeno-infused tequila, sweetness from a bit of agave, and the pureed watermelon gives you a majorly refreshing taste. I blended up a big batch, which was helpful since they were so tasty they disappeared fast. Now, the real question is, how have I lived this long without a blender in my life? Full recipe for your own summer-cocktail enjoyment below! 
- ⅓-1/2 Cups of Jalapeño-infused Tequila
- 3 Cups small-cubed Watermelon
- 4-5 Cups of Ice
- ⅓ Cup of Lime Juice
- 1 Tbsp of Agave
- Recipe:
- Infuse tequila the night before, slice one jalapeño and leave it a bottle of tequila overnight.
- Combine all ingredients and blend for 60 seconds.
- Pour into 4 glasses and garnish with slices of jalapeño, lime and watermelon!
Please note: Breville has provided me with a complimentary blender. All opinions, recipes, and images are my own.
Yum! That sounds amazing, I’ll definitely have to try this out soon.
Looks delish Kate!
As a Texas, this sound freaking delicious! Jalapenos? Yes please! I just made a watermelon marg the other day, but seeing this now, I’m thinking it definitely could have used a kick to it to balance out the sweetness! Thanks for sharing, will have to try soon 🙂
Oops…Texan! Apparently I can’t spell tonight 🙂
Just stumbled upon your blog! Jalapeño and watermelon? I hope the jalapeño is subtle enough or provides a little kick to the super refreshing watermelon flavor. Looks like a great summer drink.
LOVE this, it looks so yummy!!!! I have a site on detox water http://www.healthymorningdetox.com/ and I infuse the waters the same way you suggested to infuse the tequila. I would love to feature this on my blog! Do you mind if I share your post?
Mmmmm sounds / looks delish!!
