Do I need to freeze the watermelon in advance?

It is not necessary to freeze the watermelon in advance. You can simply use fresh watermelon. However, if you want your watermelon margarita to be extra cold and refreshing, you can freeze some watermelon cubes and use them as ice cubes in your cocktail.

Can I make the watermelon margarita in advance for a party?

It is best to make the watermelon margarita just before serving to maintain freshness and the best flavor. However, if you want to make the cocktail in advance, store it in the refrigerator and add the ice only right before serving.

Can I make the cocktail without a blender?

Yes, chop the watermelon very finely and mash or mash it into a pulp. Strain it if necessary for a smooth result.

How do I keep the sugar on the rim of the glass?

First, brush the rim with agave syrup or lime juice, then press the glass into the sugar. This will help it stick nicely.

Can I make it alcoholic?

Yes, add 4–6 cl of tequila for a classic margarita variation.

Make the watermelon juice
Peel the watermelon, cut it into pieces, and remove the seeds. Blend the pieces with a hand blender or regular blender until smooth. Optionally, strain the juice for an extra fine texture.

Finish the juice
Add the lime juice and a few ice cubes to the watermelon juice and blend again until well chilled.

Prepare the glasses
Sprinkle some coconut blossom sugar on a plate. Rub the rim of a glass with a little agave syrup, then dip the rim into the sugar so it’s nicely coated.

Serve
Fill the glass with the watermelon juice. Serve immediately, optionally with an extra ice cube or a sprig of mint for a refreshing touch.

Tips

Use a fully ripe, sweet watermelon for the best flavor.
Strain the juice if you want an extra smooth cocktail without pulp.
Adjust the sweetness with more or less agave syrup or coconut blossom sugar to taste.
Add a few ice cubes to the glass for a refreshing effect.
Garnish with a lime slice or a sprig of mint for a festive touch.
