Ingredients
-
5 cups watermelon ripe
-
1 lime fresh, juice
-
8 mint leaves fresh, medium-sized, washed
Directions
- Prepare the watermelon by removing the seeds and cut into small cubes. Freeze in a large container for at least 12 hours.
- Once you're ready to prepare the watermelon slushie, remove the watermelon cubes from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature at least ten minutes.
- In the meantime, prepare the lime juice and mint leaves.
- In a high-speed blender, add the ingredients and start to blend on low speed. Use the tamper to push down the pieces to encourage blending. Avoid over-blending though - if you're after that lovely icy consistency. This step involved frequent stirring to ensure all the cubes are blended and mixed with the mint.
- Garnish with mint just before serving.
