Add the frozen watermelon cubes, silver tequila, granulated sugar, and fresh lime juice to a blender.

Pour the frozen margarita into chilled glasses and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately.
Comments
Every ingredient is available year-round at any Charlotte supermarket, and the cost per serving lands around $3–4 depending on tequila choice, driven mainly by the spirit. The stated 45 minutes is honest if you're freezing watermelon chunks beforehand, but a weeknight user would be better served knowing they need prep time the day before. This is a same-night-only drink that won't reheat, and it's a bare minimum household fit—it makes exactly two servings and requires a blender, so it skews toward summer entertaining rather than family feeding.
