Margarita Watermelon Surprise

2 small to medium watermelons
1 to 2 cups liquid Margarita Mix Tequila

1. Wash and dry watermelons. With a long sharp knife, mark off a 5 to 6 inch circle on top of the watermelons; cut a deep cone into the center of each watermelon. Remove the plug. Turn watermelons over and let them drain for about 30 minutes; discard juice.

2. Turn melons open side up. Into one pour 1/2 to 1 cup liquid margarita mix to fill cavity, wait a bit and add more as it is absorbed.

3. For second melon, measure a similar amount of mix and combine with tequila, using 3 parts mix to 1 part tequila. Pour into second watermelon.

4. Let melons stand as liquid is absorbed. Replace plug. Put on Ice and mark one melon alcoholic and the other melon non-alcoholic. Slice melon when ready to eat.
