1/4 cup fresh-squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons tequila (optional)
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
2 teaspoons agave nectar
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons minced fresh mint
Pinch each of salt and freshlyground black pepper

PREPARATION

Place the watermelon and tomato pieces on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.
