How to Make Watermelon Lime Slushies
First things first, cut your fresh watermelon in small pieces and place in a single layer on a cookie sheet. Throw that in the freezer overnight and make sure your watermelon chunks are frozen solid before blending.
Back to the Watermelon Lime Slush, this drink is so easy! Literally all you do is throw everything into your blender and blend until smooth. There is no fancy method and you can’t mess it up.
Troubleshooting Your Watermelon Lime Slushie
Too thick? Add a tablespoon more of ginger ale or lime juice.
Too thin? Add a 1/4 more of frozen watermelon.
Not sweet enough? Some watermelon isn’t very sweet so you may want to add more cane sugar. I recommend a tablespoon at a time.
Tips For The Very Best Watermelon Lime Slush
- Use freshly squeezed lime juice. Store-bought lime juice just isn’t the same.
- Blend it up as you are serving it. This slushie doesn’t store well in the refrigerator or freezer and it melts quickly. Serving it as you need it, and immediately, is best.
- Garnish is everything. To make this slush even more fun, add mini watermelon slices, lime slices, and fun straws.
