🧂 Ingredients

2 cups watermelon chunks

will be turned into juice
2 oz tequila

I used Jose Cuervo Especial, Blue Agave Gold Tequila
1 1/2 tbsp honey
1/2 lime juice
1/2 to soak the rim of the glass
Spanglish Asadero Chile Limon

to rim the glass
ice

for each glass

Instructions

1 In a blender, blend the watermelon. I did this on the smoothie setting of my
Instant Pot blender. Don't worry about the seeds, we will be sifting this
through a colander.
2 Once done blended, use a strainer over a large measuring cup or cup and sift the
liquid through. I use a spoon to do so faster. Set aside.
3 Next, add the tequila, honey, half the juice of a lime and watermelon juice you
just prepared into a cocktail shaker. Shake well for about 15 seconds.
4 On a small plate, spread about 1/4 cup Spanglish Asadero Chile Limon.
5 Use the second half of the lime to moisten the rim of the glass.
6 Press the edges of the glass into the small plate with the Spanglish Asadero
Chile Limon.
7 Add ice, watermelon juice mixture, into the rimmed glass and enjoy!
