Notes
To make this a frozen margarita you can either add ice into the blender when blending. Or you can strain the mixture put it back into the blender and blend with ice for a smoother consistency.
Choosing a Watermelon - To pick a ripe watermelon full of flavor you want to look for one that has a creamy yellow spot on the bottom and sounds hollow when you gently tap it.
Use a Strainer - Strain your blender contents into a glass or pitcher to remove any unwanted watermelon pulp or seeds.
You can store leftovers of this Watermelon Margarita in an airtight container in your fridge for 2-3 days.
