Watermelon Margaritas

My husband and I have been trying to eat healthier.  We just got off a Whole30 diet a couple of weeks ago and feel really good.  Now that it's almost Cinco de Mayo, we wanted to try to have some margaritas but didn't want to have one with a lot of sugar in it.  So, I tried a few variations and came up with these watermelon margaritas.  It's so simple and only has three ingredients...watermelon, lime juice and tequila.  The watermelon probably has a lot of sugar in it, but at least it is fruit sugar and not processed! These are really refreshing and go well with chips and salsa. Make up a pitcher and have a Cinco de Mayo party!

Margarita Drink Stirrers

It seems to be margarita week on the blog! On Monday I shared my favorite margarita cupcake recipe and on Friday, I will share the recipe for these yummy-looking margaritas. Today I'm sharing these margarita drink stirrers I made.

Last year, we had a Cinco de Mayo party and I made a Fiesta printable party collection.  These drink stirrers match that collection and you can download the circles to make them here today for free!  

They are simple to make.  You only need some glue, the printable file, and any kind of stirring stick such as a popsicle stick, lollipop stick or a skewer.  Once you print out the file, cut out the circles.  I used a 1.5 inch circle punch to make perfect circles.  I then placed glue on the back of one circle, placed the stick on it, and then glued another circle to the back to finish it off.

They are great for any upcoming Cinco de Mayo parties.  Why not make some for yours?
