Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups fresh watermelon chunks seedless if possible
  • 1 cup ice cubes crushed or whole
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice fresh, for tanginess

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cup

Method
 

  1. Place the watermelon chunks into the blender, ensuring it's easy to blend without overflowing.
  2. Add the ice cubes on top of the watermelon, creating a layered look that chills the fruit thoroughly.
  3. Pour in the freshly squeezed lime juice, which will add brightness and balance to the mixture.
  4. Secure the lid tightly on the blender, then blend everything on high speed for about 30-45 seconds until the mixture is smooth, frosty, and vibrant pink.
  5. Check the consistency—if it's too thick, add a splash of cold water and pulse again until perfectly slushy.
  6. Pour the icy watermelon slush into glasses, using a spoon or ladle to serve up the shimmering, snow-cone texture.
  7. Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a lime wedge if desired for an extra pop of color and aroma.

Notes

For an even more refreshing experience, serve immediately. Adjust lime juice and ice to suit your preferred level of tartness and coldness.
