Itās Monday and weāre drinking Skinny JalapeƱo Watermelon Margaritas! Itās pretty much the BEST.DAY.EVER.
Can every day of my life could look exactly like this one??
Iāve always said that margaritas are my absolute favorite cocktails. But, it has to be a REAL margarita ā no sour mix for me. I usually stick to traditional lime + tequila margaritas, but if I have to choose another flavor, I often go with watermelon. Watermelon margaritas are SO refreshing and delicious!
So, Skinny JalapeƱo Watermelon Margaritas ā thereās jalapeƱo infused tequila ā¦ and lime ā¦ and triple sec ā¦ plus, a special ingredient to help tie in that refreshing watermelon flavor, BaiĀ® Kula Watermelon, of course ! It doesnāt get much better than that, ā especially in August when itās 100+ degrees.
These are spicy, tart, and sweet. I LOVE IT. The spiciness comes from jalapeƱo slices. Itās just spicy enough. You get the sweetness from the Bai Kula Watermelon, a little tart from the lime, and then BOOM! Some heat.
And if spicy isnāt your thing, you can always just leave out the jalapeƱo part and just use regular tequila.
What really takes THESE margaritas over the top though is BaiĀ® Kula Watermelon! Itās just sweet enough with bold flavor and no artificial sweeteners. There are only 5 calories and 1 gram of sugar per serving. Plus, BaiĀ® drinks are infused with antioxidants!
You can find delicious BaiĀ® flavors like Kula Watermelon, Molokai Coconut, and Brasilia Blueberry at your local Target all summer long! Make sure to save 10% on Bai with Cartwheel in the Target App, now through 9/1!
