Cheers to being green

It’s been a long week, no? Well I think it has, so in celebration of the weekend, I’d like to share with all of you a recipe for a refreshing summer drink: Watermelon Margarita. I’m categorizing it as “green” because the main ingredient is a seeded watermelon.

Ingredients:

16 oz. seeded, blended watermelon
1/2 lime
6 oz. Tequila
3 oz. triple sec
1 tbsp. sugar

Dice the watermelon, removing all seeds. Freeze for 20-30 minutes. Blend (be careful not to over blend), add remaining ingredients and top with ice. Blend again. Add sugar to taste. Serve, enjoy and don't think about next week until you have to.

Along the way, he's crewed aboard a skipjack in the bay, canoed under city streets up the Jones Fall from the Inner Harbor, and gone deep underground in a western Maryland coal mine. He loves seafood, rambles in the country and good stories. He hopes to share some here.
