![]() ![]() The combination of spicy syrup, sweet watermelon, tangy lime juice, and the chili-lime saltiness of the rims is absolute perfection. Love it.Īnd guess what? I love it even more after having it on the rims of these margs. It punches up the flavor of anything you add it to. It’s very similar to the Trader Joe’s chili lime seasoning. I love it on eggs or avocado toast, sprinkled over salads, and even with grilled meats. Have you tried Tajin yet? It is addictive. I love a smoky, spicy effect with super sweet cocktails, and so I wanted to try rimming the glasses in a mix of salt, sugar, and Tajin. It only takes a few seconds to make your own watermelon juice.Īnother special touch for these margs is how I rim the glasses. If you want to use up some of that gigantic melon you bought at the store, then throw some into a blender and let it go until it is completely blended into juice. If you’re looking for a quicker and easier way to make these, just use the bottled juice! I love using fresh watermelon for this recipe, but I have made it with the bottled watermelon juice and it is still wonderful. Once you have your syrup ready and cooled, you can get started on the actual cocktails. And I really like that for these cocktails. Does that make sense? A jalapeño, for instance, would give heat AND a green pepper flavor. The serrano pepper gives a fairly intense heat to the syrup without giving a very peppery flavor. Those margs started with a spicy simple syrup, and that’s the same syrup we’re going to use in this watermelon rendition. My sister and her husband made them immediately and said they were awesome. Last month, I shared a spicy cucumber margarita recipe and that one quickly became my favorite. These margs will have to wait until they are much, much older, of course. Now I can share the experience with my babes! Up until now, I was eating entire watermelons alone. This year is the first time both my kids have been interested in it, which is great. Especially in the warmer months.Īnd don’t even get me started on watermelon! It is, hands down, my favorite fruit to enjoy in the summer. Aside from any gin spritz, if I have it as an option, I order it. I have said it a thousand times, but I love a marg. Spicy, sweet, tangy, and loaded with summer watermelon flavor.
