Spicy Watermelon Margarita Recipe
It's National Taco Day and we've got the perfect drink to go with dinner! Just because Summer is officially over doesn't mean you can't still enjoy the health benefits of watermelon, and as far as we're concerned, margaritas are always in season. The unique flavor of Radiate - our cold-pressed watermelon juice featuring fermented lemongrass, pairs perfectly with silver tequila, tart lime, and spicy jalapeño in this refreshing drink. If you're looking for a healthy cocktail recipe to wash down your tacos, try our Spicy Watermelon Margarita!

Ingredients:

  • ¼ cup Silver Tequila
  • 1 (small) lime squeezed
  • ¼ cup Radiate
  • 2-4 jalapeño slices, depending on how spicy you like it
  • Ice, for shaking
  • Coarsely ground sea salt

Instructions:

Salt the rim of your glass. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Add the tequila, lime juice, Radiate & jalapeño slices. Put on the lid and shake for 15-30 seconds; strain the liquid into a glass and garnish with a fresh watermelon wedge and more jalepeño slices if you like a kick! What's your favorite Suja to enjoy in a cocktail? Let us know in the comments!
