Adventures in poptails: watermelon margarita

  Well...... after my total meltdown (heh, get it, *melt*down) from my first poptail attempt, I was determined to create a poptail that would hold together. 

I did!  YAY!  See partly eaten watermelon margarita poptail below.

And....... some snapshots.....

Yes, that's mint.  This one was kind of a margarita/mojito mix.  After tasting and blending and straining, I had some mix leftover, and made my self a dandy little drink!

So........ a few things about this drink:
1. It was ridiculously salty
2. It had kind of an odd funky aftertaste
3. No way in any sense of the word did this taste like a margarita (other than salty)

First off, I used the watermelon mint infused vodka that I made last month instead of tequila, which may have been a factor.  Other than that, this was just a little raunchy!  I froze the babies anyways and decided to try them post freeze before making my final veto.

I tried to like them, I really did. 

I was super exicted when I saw that they froze, and I was all ready to share the recipe and make everyone happy!  Alas, this recipe totally blows.  2 attempts down and 11 months left to find the perfect poptail for my wedding.

One day poptail...... one day.
