Ingredients

  • 6 cups watermelon cubed, frozen
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 2 cups cold water more if needed

Syrup

  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Garnish

  • a few watermelon small slices
  • mint leaves

Instructions

  • Cube watermelon and freeze overnight. Make sure watermelon cubes are not stuck together when frozen.
  • Make syrup mixture by combining hot water and granulated sugar. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Tip: use microwave to heat water.
  • In a blender combine watermelon cubes, syrup, lime juice and cold water. Blend. Add more water or pause to stir if blender gets stuck.
  • Taste and add more syrup if needed. If watermelon is very ripe and sweet, you can omit the sugar, blend, taste, and add sugar if it isn't sweet enough.
  • Garnish with mint and watermelon slices. Serve and enjoy!
