From Facebook friend Robin Rothwell Allison: Here’s one recipe, but I like less sugar and more lime, and use Patron Citronage instead of triple sec. You can also cheat and use watermelon juice drink, but fresh is always better!  I added ice to each drink later so as not to water it down in the jug. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/jewels-watermelon-margaritas

 

 

The jug is from Bed, Bath and Beyond.  Glasses are mason and jelly jars, lids with straws purchased as a set at Bed, Bath and Beyond as well.
