# What You'll Need:

01 - 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed and frozen

02 - 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 2-3 limes)

03 - 1 cup coconut milk (full fat or light, as preferred)

04 - 2 tablespoons agave syrup or honey (optional, adjust to taste)

05 - Lime slices

06 - Fresh mint leaves

01 - Add the frozen watermelon cubes, coconut milk, lime juice, and agave syrup (or honey) to a high-speed blender.

02 - Blend on high until smooth and slushy, scraping down the sides if necessary.

03 - Taste and adjust sweetness, adding more agave or honey if desired.

04 - Pour into chilled glasses. Garnish with lime slices and fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately.

01 -

It comes together in literally five minutes with no fancy equipment needed
The frozen watermelon creates the perfect slushy texture without watering it down with ice
Naturally dairy free but somehow still creamy and indulgent tasting

02 -

Not all blenders can handle frozen fruit, so if your motor starts straining, add a splash of coconut milk and pulse instead of running continuously
The slushie separates as it sits, so give it a quick stir before serving if you made it ahead
Fresh watermelon varies wildly in sweetness, so always taste before freezing a batch meant for slushies

03 -

If your watermelon is not quite sweet enough, the slushie will taste flat. Taste the fruit before freezing and compensate with extra agave if needed
A high speed blender really does make a difference here, but a regular blender works if you are patient and stop to scrape frequently
