    Instead of spending all that time picking out the seeds, just puree it in the blender & run it thru a fine mesh strainer!! (OR if you're lucky to have a fresh & easy nearby, they have pure fresh watermelon juice! Put a few sprigs of mint in with the simple syrup while it was boiling gave a little extra fresh flavor. Easy, simple & refreshing! YUM!

    My mom and I have been making these margaritas for a while now. They are especially good during the summer with a very sweet watermelon. Depending on the sweetness of the watermelon, we sometimes will leave out the simple syrup.

    It was a huge hit at our 4th of July BBQ. We used the exact proportions he recommended, and we had really good quality watermelon. Everyone loved them!

    I am a tequila girl, but these were not good. They also took a long time to make for a drink, with seedling a watermelon and making the simple syrup.

    These were nice and refreshing. I liked that the watermelon puree was not diluted by the ice. They didn't quite have the sweet/melony flavor I was hoping for, but we still managed to knock off three pitchers.....

    Made the recipe precisely as directed - refreshing and different, but too sweet. I ended up adding more lime juice (and a bit more tequila than recipe calls for. I might just drop the simple syrup infused with lime - not sure that added sweetness is really needed, and the lime oils can be added to the drink with a twist of lime rind at the time of service.

    Perfect. Strong enough to taste the alcohol with a touch of sweetness. Very satisfying! Thanks Emril!! YOU ROCK!
