For a sweeter margarita, consider using agave nectar instead of white sugar. If you prefer a less sweet drink, reduce the amount of sugar or omit it altogether. To add a spicy kick, muddle a slice of jalapeño with the watermelon before blending. For a non-alcoholic version, replace the tequila with sparkling water or club soda.
