Thoroughly liquify 1/2 of a watermelon cut into chunks and deseeded, in batches (both the red and white parts, cut off the dark green skin) in the blender until liquified, with the juice of half a lime, maybe a bit of lemonade, and a bit of agave syrup, or whatever other sweetener you like. Taste and add more lime or sweetener if desired. Strain if you like. I keep the juice in a pitcher in the fridge. It's nice watermelon lemonade. You can also freeze it in ice cube trays. Then, just make it like a regular Marg, some watermelon juice, 3 parts tequila, 1 or more part orange liqueur of choice (Cointreau, Triple Sec, Controy, Grand Marnier). Blend with ice, or frozen watermelon ice cubes, or not. We like ours on the rocks. You can rim your glasses with lime and dip in sugar or salt.
I find the white rind part cuts the sweetness of the watermelon, and adds a nice flavor.
