Dip the moistened rim in salt.

Set the lime wedge and glass aside.

Step 5

Repeat with the remaining wedges and 3 more glasses.

Transfer about 3/4 of the melon chunks, separating them, to a blender.

Add the tequila, triple sec, and lime juice, and blend until fairly smooth.

Step 8

Divide the cocktail mixture among the prepared glasses.

Step 9

Squeeze a lime wedge into each cocktail, drop the wedge into the glass and serve immediately.

TEQUILA TIP: For an extra touch of color and flavor, mix 2 teaspoons finely minced lime zest (colored peel) into the salt before rimming the glass.

We enjoyed this drink for lunch today. We used 1/2 the alcohol since we are such light weights. I accidentally froze my watermelon for 3 days but it worked out great.
