Frozen Watermelon Virgin Margaritas

We celebrating Labor Day today poolside with the Beiers. The only labor intensive thing I did today was make Frozen Watermelon Virgin Margaritas and I'll let you in on a little secret: they were pretty easy to make.

I recommend this to anyone who is pregnant or someone who wants to pretend he/she is drinking a margarita but wants to spare the calories. I found this on the weight watchers recipe board years ago and never tried it. Recipe makes four servings if you pour in little glasses, or two servings if pouring in a full sized glass. I topped it off with whipped cream but I'm sure it's still tasty without it. I didn't do the garnish because that would have been too much labor for me to endure.

4 cups ice
1/8 tsp table salt
1/2 lime(s), cut into wedges for garnish
