This is a spicy-sweet salsa that starts off cool and ends in heat. It's hot, but very refreshing. I keep the seeds in the peppers for maximum heat. This was a prize-winning recipe at our neighbor's classic Cinco de Mayo party.

I wasn't a fan of this salsa. I found the watermelon to be too sweet and the jalapeños to be too spicy. It just wasn't my cup of tea.

This salsa is a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be perfect for people who like spicy food.

I love how versatile this salsa is. It's great on tacos, burritos, and nachos. You can also use it as a dip for chips or vegetables.

I'm not a huge fan of watermelon, but I actually really enjoyed this salsa. The sweetness of the watermelon is balanced out by the spiciness of the jalapeños, and the lime juice adds a nice tang.

This salsa was a huge hit at my last party! The combination of sweet watermelon, spicy jalapeños, and tangy lime is just perfect. I'll definitely be making this again.
