MELON MARGARITA
Melon liqueur dramatically changes the flavor and color of a classic margarita and also makes it sweeter. If you'd like your melon margarita a little more tart, cut back on the liqueur just a tiny bit. -James Schend, Taste of Home Deputy Editor

Steps:
- Moisten rim of 1 cocktail glass with lime wedge. If desired, sprinkle salt on a plate; dip rim in salt. Fill glass with ice. In an empty cocktail shaker, combine tequila, melon liqueur, and lime juice. Fill with ice; cover and shake until frost forms on the outside of the shaker, 15-20 seconds. Strain into prepared glass. Garnish with lime wedge and, if desired, melon balls.

TRI-MELON MARGARITA SALAD
This is soooo easy and gorgeous. I am not a fan of those salad recipes out there with feta, watermelon, and onions....but I do love a good refreshing melon dish in the summer time!

Steps:
- Use a melon baller, scoop all three melons into balls. All together you need about 10 cups. I like to use equal portions, but if you like pink better than green -- use more watermelon -- you get the idea.
- In a large glass bowl, mix together lime juice, lime zest, tequila, salt, and simple syrup. Add melon balls and mint. Toss until well coated.
- Serve!

SALTY WATERMELON MARGARITA SALAD
Summery watermelon salads are a staple when the heat arrives, but this rendition has a few tricks up its sleeves. Taking inspiration from a margarita cocktail, we start off by quick-pickling the cucumbers to bring in a salty-tangy crunch and then toss everything with an orange-and-lime vinaigrette and heaps of creamy feta.

Steps:
- Place the chopped watermelon in a large bowl and chill for 1 hour or up to overnight.
- Meanwhile, for the quick-pickle cucumbers: Combine 1/2 cup of the red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste into a medium bowl, then whisk until the salt is fully dissolved. Add the chopped cucumbers and let sit for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
- For the vinaigrette: Combine the olive oil, lime zest and juice, orange zest and juice, remaining 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste in a small bowl, then whisk until emulsified.
- To assemble: Combine the watermelon, cucumbers, basil, feta and dressing in a serving bowl and toss until mixed well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Chill at least 30 minutes before serving.
MELON SALAD
Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Turn off heat and add shrimp and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Drain. When cool enough to handle, slice each shrimp in half lengthwise.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, ginger, lemongrass, lime zest and juice, and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Halve the honeydew and watermelon, cut away from rind, and remove the seeds. Slice the melons into 1/8-inch-thick pieces. Remove the watermelon seeds (it's okay if the slices don't stay intact). Using a cake ring or a glass whose mouth is slightly smaller than a 14 to 16-ounce martini glass or champagne coupe, cut out 16 slices from the watermelon, and 16 slices from the honeydew. Save the best-looking 4 watermelon slices.
- Set out 4 (8 to 12-ounce) martini glasses or Champagne coupes.
- Layer 2 slices of watermelon and honeydew in each glass, lightly sprinkling each melon layer with the lemongrass dressing, chopped basil, chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper. (You may need to trim the melon slices so they fit neatly into the glasses, which should be half-full at this point.) Divide the shrimp among the glasses, arranging them in concentric circles. Season the shrimp with the dressing, basil, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Add another layer of melon in the reverse order: honeydew, then watermelon, seasoning as before. Top each salad with a reserved watermelon slice, and sprinkle lightly with the dressing, basil, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Garnish with 1 basil and 1 cilantro leaf. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving (the melon and shrimp taste best when well chilled).
