The news about the effects [1] of watermelon [2] inspired me to create my newest popsicle [3]: watermelon margarita! Served with a small bowl of margarita salt, these uberfrozen margs were tangy and delicious. Beware, the popsicles contain liquor and melt rather quickly. To avoid a melty mess, I froze my platter for an hour before serving. Learn how to make these simple, scrumptious popsicles when you !

1/4 cup lime juice (roughly 1 large lime)
3 ounces tequila
1 ounce cointreau

- Place the Dixie cups in a flat bottomed container. Place the popsicles in the freezer and wait patiently until frozen.
