Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cubed watermelon preferably seedless
  • 1 cup ice cubes adjust for desired thickness
  • 2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup for sweetness, optional
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice adds brightness

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Knife
  • Measuring cup

Method
 

  1. Measure and prepare your ingredients: cube the watermelon, measure out the ice, honey, and lime juice.
  2. Add the watermelon cubes, ice, honey, and lime juice into your blender.
  3. Secure the lid tightly on the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and frosty, about 30-45 seconds, listening for the icy crunching sound.
  4. Stop the blender and check the consistency; it should be thick and slushy with a vibrant pink color.
  5. Pour the watermelon slushie into glasses, allowing the icy mixture to fill the cups smoothly.
  6. Serve immediately with a straw or garnish with a small wedge of lime or mint if desired, for an extra refreshing touch.

Notes

You can adjust the sweetness by varying the honey or syrup amount. For a thinner slushie, add a splash of cold water or more lime juice before blending.
