Mix things up with this delicious summery take on a traditional Margarita. This Festive Season, we’re doing it in ultimate Saffer Summer Style – with Watermelons!
Le Fera Festive Watermelon Margaritas
(makes 12 cocktail glass servings)
Ingredients
- 2 medium limes

Preparation
- Cut 1 lime into 12 wedges and reserve for garnishes.
