Delicious and refreshing icy cold watermelon blended into a slushie. Sweet with no added sugar, this one ingredient beverage is great for hot summer days.
Yes. You read that right. One ingredient watermelon slushie.
Technically, this isn’t really a recipe, but I wanted to introduce this amazing summer beverage to you in case you haven’t tried it before. It’s one of my favorites.
Occasionally, when I, or one of my younger sisters, crave watermelon juice, and we don’t have watermelon at home, we would drop by a milk tea shop and buy one. It’s usually $3-4 a cup. Expensive, right? I think so too.
Watermelon slushies are so easy to make. They’re delicious and refreshing and a healthy thirst quencher. And did I mention you only need one ingredient? So what are you waiting for? Go out and buy a watermelon.
Cut the watermelon into smaller pieces. You’ll need about 2 cups.
Freeze the watermelon for about 1-2 hours until they are semi solid.
Add the frozen watermelon into the blender, and several ice cubes if desired. Blend the watermelon until it becomes smooth.
Pour the watermelon slushie into a glass, and serve cold.
Enjoy!

I haven’t thought about drinking a watermelon, but now that you mention it, it sounds perfectly and naturally delicious. I must try on the next hot day.
I hope you’ll like it, Anita! My family drinks it all the time, and we love it =)
Delicious! A splash of rum might be good too! 🙂
Yum! A watermelon cocktail =)
Yum! We served a version of this at my sister’s bridal shower recently. We added some lemonade to the watermelon when blending it to give it just a little extra zing 🙂
I’ll have to try your version with the lemonade! Sounds amazing =)
Looks like that might help me get through a Phoenix summer!
It would be perfect for the hot Phoenix sun =)
This looks good! I’ll have to try this. Thanks for sharing!

Gorgeous photos! You’re a wonderful photographer! Very creative!
This summer I’ve been enjoying a tall glass of filtered water with ice, with the juice of 1/2 lime and 8-10 drops of stevia. It’s so refreshing and yummy!
Thank you so much, Mary! I’ve the leaves of stevia before, but I’ve never actually used it in a recipe, I’ll have to give it a go =) Have a great weekend!
