Step 1
Run a lime wedge around the rim of 4 glasses, then dip each rim into a plate of 2 tbsp coarse salt to coat. Set aside.
Step 2
In a blender, combine 4 cups watermelon chunks, 1/2 cup lime juice, 3/4 cup tequila, 1/4 cup orange liqueur, and 2 cups ice.
Step 3
Blend on high until smooth and slushy, about 30-45 seconds. The mixture should be thick but pourable; add more ice if too thin.
Step 4
Taste and adjust: add more lime juice for tartness or a touch of simple syrup if the watermelon isn't sweet enough.
Step 5
Pour the margarita into the prepared glasses, garnish with a lime wedge, and serve immediately.
