Instructions

Arrange watermelon in a single layer in two 9-by-13-inch sheet trays. Bring sugar and water to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly. Combine sugar water (simple syrup), tequila and orange liquor. Pour mixture over watermelon wedges, and refrigerate for at least 45 minutes, turning over once. Combine salt and lime zest. Remove watermelon from the tray, and arrange on a platter. Pour any extra margarita over the slices. Garnish with lime wedges. Serve with lime salt. Enjoy!!
