Summer in a glass doesn't get much better than this — fresh watermelon blended smooth, spiked with 100% agave blanco tequila, and brightened with real lime juice and a touch of honey. The whole thing comes together in a blender and a cocktail shaker, no fancy bar equipment required. Straining the watermelon purée through a fine-mesh sieve is the move that keeps the texture silky and the color that gorgeous deep pink. A salted rim adds just enough savory contrast to make every sip feel intentional and balanced. Since every ingredient here is naturally whole and unprocessed, there's nothing to second-guess — no hidden additives, no fillers, just clean, vibrant flavors. It's the kind of drink you'll want to make in a big batch the moment watermelon season hits.

Ingredients

2 servings

3 cups seedless watermelon, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 oz blanco tequila (100% agave)
2 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
1 tbsp honey
¼ tsp fine sea salt, plus more for the rim
1 cup ice cubes, plus extra for serving

For serving

2 lime wedges, for rimming and garnish
2 small watermelon wedges, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1
Spread a thin layer of fine sea salt on a small flat plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of each rocks glass, then press the rim into the salt to coat. Fill each glass with fresh ice and set aside.
2
Add the watermelon cubes to a blender and blend on high until completely smooth, about 20–30 seconds. Pour the watermelon purée through a fine-mesh strainer into a measuring cup or bowl, pressing with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible; discard the solids. You should have about 1 cup of strained watermelon juice.
