Ingredients

4 cups (600 g) seedless watermelon cubes
1/2 cup (125 ml) water
1/2 cup (125 ml) lemon juice
1/3 cup (70 g) sugar

Select all

Preparation

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Place the watermelon cubes on the prepared sheet and freeze for 4 hours or until frozen solid.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring the water, lemon juice and sugar to a boil. Simmer until the sugar has dissolved. Refrigerate the syrup until ready to use.
In a blender or food processor, purée the watermelon cubes and cooled syrup until thick and slushy.
Serve immediately, adding a wide straw to each glass.

Note

Make sure to space the melon cubes out on the baking sheet before you freeze them. Crowded chunks will clump when frozen and be tougher to handle. Once frozen, store the melon cubes in a resealable bag in the freezer.
