Watermelon Margaritas

  1. Pour sugar or salt into a wide saucer. Rub the rims of 4 martini glasses with half a lime. Dip and swirl the glasses in the sugar or salt. Freeze the glasses.
  2. Using a processor, puree the chopped watermelon, erring on the "big" idea, since straining will reduce the mixture by half.
  3. Sieve the watermelon puree and set aside.
  4. In a large pitcher, combine the tequila, lime juice, Triple Sec and Cointreau.
  5. Add the watermelon puree. Stir and chill for several hours.
  6. Load a cocktail shaker halfway full with ice. Pour in the chilled cocktail mix and shake. Repeat as needed.
  7. Pour chilled margaritas into sugared glasses. Garnish - or not - with toothpick-loaded small watermelon balls and tiny lime wedges.
