Almost...try this instead:
Step 1: Fill a blender with watermelon chunks. You can spoon out of half a watermelon directly into the blender rather than worrying about getting neat chunks as its all going to be blended soon
Step 2: Add 3/4 cup silver tequila and 1/4 cup Cointreau or other triple-sec
Step 3: Add juice from 1 lime
Step 4: Turn on blender and blend until watermelon is liquefied
Step 5: Add crushed ice to glasses, and serve with thin slice of lime and a pinch of salt
I froze the watermelon chunks to make puree. When you add the tequla and lime juice and agave it's like a frozen watermelon margarita. Delicious.
Definitely Ben P’s advice. Add the Cointreau. Etc. Makes for a much better cocktail.
@Ben P Made this way for the two of us to take to a party. Neither of us likes tequila and I'm not a fan of watermelon but we both liked this. Thanks for the recommendation.

Excellent summer drink. Not as boozy or sweet as a margarita. It will become our go to summer cocktail.
