- 0.75 cup Fresh Lime Juice
- 2 tablespoons Agave Nectar
- 6 cups Ice Cubes
- 0.25 cup Salt

Instructions
Cut a seedless watermelon into cubes and measure out 8 cups. Spread the cubes onto a baking sheet and freeze them for at least 2 hours, or until fully frozen.
Once the watermelon cubes are frozen, prepare the serving glasses by running a lime wedge around the rims. Dip the rims into a shallow plate with 1/4 cup of salt to coat. Set the glasses aside.
In a large blender, combine the frozen watermelon cubes, tequila, triple sec, fresh lime juice, agave nectar, and 6 cups of ice cubes. Blend until smooth and slushy.
Taste the margarita mixture and adjust sweetness with additional agave nectar if desired.
Pour the frozen margarita mix into the prepared glasses, dividing evenly among 8 servings.
Garnish each glass with a lime wedge and a watermelon slice on the rim.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing summer drink with your crowd!
