Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed and frozen
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • Pinch of salt
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare your watermelon by cutting it into 1-inch cubes. Spread the cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid.
  2. Once frozen, transfer the watermelon cubes to your blender. Add the honey, lime juice, and pinch of salt.
  3. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides occasionally to ensure everything blends evenly.
  4. For a softer sorbet, serve immediately. For a firmer texture, transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 30-60 minutes before serving.
  5. Scoop into bowls and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

Choose ripe watermelon for natural sweetness. Freeze cubes in single layer to prevent clumping. Adjust sweetener based on watermelon ripeness. Store leftovers in airtight container - re-blend if texture becomes icy.
