Preparation
Step 1
In a shaker, add watermelon juice, lime juice, tequila, triple sec, and a slice or two of fresh jalapeño. (Start with less jalapeño and taste test – you can always add more!)
Step 2
Use a muddler or a wooden spoon to gently muddle the jalapeño to release the flavor. Shake the drink to combine. Pour into salt- or sugar-rimmed glasses, then garnish with watermelon ice cubes and slices of lime if desired.

Chef's notes
**To make fresh watermelon juice, blend up a bunch of watermelon in a blender until smooth. Then strain the juice out through a fine-mesh strainer. (Or if you have a juicer, you can just add the fresh watermelon directly to the juicer.)
