watermelon margarita

I like a cocktail or two every now and then. D is an amateur mixer. He has come up with some good combinations, but, never wrote them down (I try not to say I told you so)...

I am a bit picky, and I have to know what goes in my drinks. I am not much of a fanatic to know every ingredient that goes into every "popular" cocktail, but, over the years, I have stuck with some favorites.

I love beer, not just any beer ... so, it is probably not a surprise that D & I are passionate home-brewers. A batch of imperial stout is aging in our basement as I write:)

Anyway, to cut a long story short, it was a long work week, an unusually warm Friday, and I had just come back from work, made dinner, then taken a long stroll to the park with my wee tot, so, I was aching for some restorative.

This watermelon margarita seemed like the perfect thing: "Amma's Juice" as my wee one likes to declare, and pretty close to the truth, actually; it has very little alcohol in it.
