Ingredients
- 4 cups cubed seedless watermelon
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons sweetener (such as sugar, honey, or agave syrup)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Cube the seedless watermelon into small chunks suitable for blending. Measure out the ice cubes, sweetener, and fresh lime juice.
- Blend: Add the watermelon cubes, ice cubes, sweetener, and lime juice to a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and slushy, typically about 30 to 60 seconds.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the watermelon slushie into glasses and serve immediately for the best refreshing experience. Optionally, garnish with a lime wedge or mint leaves.
Notes
- Use seedless watermelon for a smoother texture without interruptions while sipping.
- Adjust the sweetener according to the ripeness of the watermelon and your taste preference.
- For a lower-calorie option, use a natural zero-calorie sweetener or omit it entirely if your watermelon is very sweet.
- Add a few fresh mint leaves to the blender for an herbal twist.
- Chill the watermelon cubes beforehand for a colder slushie with less ice dilution.
