“Drunk In Love” Watermelon Margaritas

“I’ve been drinking, I’ve been drinking”…frozen Watermelon Margaritas all month long, and I think Queen B would approve.

I know what you’re thinking, it’s still winter and these cocktails are frozen! Well, I say crank that heater, get out the blender, and cuddle up with your love. You won’t be cold for long!

The only secret to making these watermelon margaritas absolutely perfect is fresh watermelon. Make sure to pick up the ripest most flavorful watermelon you can possibly find. If your grocery store is lacking in the watermelon department, you could always throw in a couple of strawberries to boost the flavor. Just don’t tell Beyonce. Happy weekend!
