Cantaloupe Margaritas made with Dobel… great way to freshen up a hot summer day. 

Cantaloupe Margaritas

For the homemade margarita mix:

• 4 oz lime juice
• 4 oz water
• 1/4 cup sugar

For the margarita:

• 1 lb cantaloupe wedges (1/2 a 3lb cantaloupe, seeds and skin removed)
• 4 oz orange liqueur
• 6 oz silver tequila
• Salt, for rimming (optional)
• Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. Add the lime juice to a pitcher.
2. Over medium heat in a small sauce pan, heat sugar and water, stirring until clear.
3. Remove from heat and add to the lime juice.
4. In a food processor or blender, process the cantaloupe for ~60 seconds until completely obliterated into a fine pulp (you might need to add a few pieces at a time if using a blender).
5. Pour pulp into a fine mesh strainer set over a large measuring cup or small bowl and strain, lightly pressing the solids until you get 1 cup of liquid.
6. Add cantaloupe juice to the pitcher, along with tequila and orange liqueur.
7. Serve in salt-rimmed glasses, over crushed ice.
