4-Ingredient Frozen Watermelon Lemonade
This frozen watermelon lemonade is my go-to when the heat hits. It is fast, icy, and incredibly refreshing. Skip the heavy syrups, this uses real fruit, gets completely frosty, and is ready to drink in 5 minutes.
Equipment
- Blender (Standard or High-speed)
- Baking sheet for freezing fruit
- Measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 4 cups Frozen Watermelon Chunks seedless cubes, frozen for at least 6 hours
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Lime or Lemon Juice adds a bright, tart contrast
- 1/2 cup Cold Water or Coconut Water just enough to help the blender spin
- 1 tablespoon Sweetener pure honey or simple sugar syrup - optional
- 10-15 Fresh Mint Leaves stripped from the stems - optional
Instructions
- Toss the frozen watermelon chunks, fresh lemon or lime juice, and cold water into your blender pitcher. If adding sweetener or mint leaves, drop them in now.
- Pulse a few times on low speed to break the big chunks down and get things moving without overloading the motor.
- Turn the speed up to high and let it run until completely smooth and slushy. If the blades get stuck, use a spatula to push the fruit down and add a tiny splash of water.
- Pour the thick, icy mixture straight into cold glasses and drink it right away.
