Summer calls for cold, fruity cocktails to beat the heat. But instead of serving cocktails in glasses, try a new spin with Watermelon Tequila Shots. The tequila soaks into the watermelon overnight, then the watermelon is cut into cubes to create a boozy, summer treat that's a fun party staple. It's no wonder this edible drink is this week's Most Popular Pin of the Week.
