Description
This refreshing watermelon slushie is icy, naturally sweet, and perfect for hot days. Made with frozen watermelon and fresh lime juice, it comes together quickly in the blender.
Ingredients
- 5 cups watermelon, cubed
- Juice of 2 limes
Instructions

- Allow the frozen watermelon to thaw slightly for a few minutes before blending.
- Add the frozen watermelon and lime juice to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and slushie-like. If needed, let the watermelon thaw for another 5 to 10 minutes to help blending.

Notes
- For extra sweetness, use a very ripe watermelon.
- Add fresh mint leaves for a refreshing twist.
- Serve immediately for the best slushie texture.
- You can freeze leftovers into popsicle molds.
