This is a killer recipe. I keep the booze levels as per the recipe and whilst it's strong, it's fantastic! I have made it for parties and it disappears in ten minutes. Now when people are coming over, they ask if it's on the menu. Way to go Bobby!

This recipe makes tasty margaritas, but the people who have been confused by this recipe are quite correct to be confused. The recipe makes about 4 cups of watermelon ice cubes. The recipe says to "place 2 cups of the watermelon ice cubes and the remaining ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth." It then says to "repeat with the remaining ingredients." If, however, you put the "remaining ingredients" (1/2 cup simple syrup, 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, etc. into the blender with the initial 2 cups of ice cubes, you will, by definition, not have any "remaining ingredients" left to blend with the remaining 2 cups of ice cubes. Thus, the recipe should say: "Place 2 cups of the watermelon ice cubes in a blender with a 1/2 portion of each of the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Pour into 4 glasses. Then, place the remaining 2 cups of the watermelon ice cubes in a blender with the remaining 1/2 portion of each of the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth."

I made this recipe exactly as written, except slightly less tequila, maybe cup and a half. Highly recommend. This will be a go-to summer drink!
