I made these for a Girls' Night Out and they were a Huge hit! My guests  said they were better than those they can get at a local restaurant! I did make a few changes but kept the basic recipe in tact. I only used Triple Sec with the tequila - still delicious! I also listened to the other reviews and used half of the tequila  that was called for -  and that was a good call!  Also, I was making a large batch and only had 2 ice cube trays  so I simply put the cubed melon in a Ziploc bag and froze the remainder.  Easy! I will definitely use this recipe again!
