Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
Instructions
- Freeze Watermelon Cubes: Cut the seedless watermelon into cubes and place them on a baking sheet or tray. Freeze these cubes for about 2-3 hours or until completely solid.
- Blend Ingredients: Add the frozen watermelon cubes, lime juice, and honey or agave syrup into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy in texture, resembling sorbet.
- Freeze to Firm Up: Transfer the blended mixture into an airtight container or bowl. Freeze it for an additional 1-2 hours so the sorbet firms up to a scoopable consistency.
- Scoop and Serve: Once set, scoop the watermelon sorbet into bowls or cones. Serve immediately for a refreshing treat.
Notes
- Use seedless watermelon for easier preparation and a smoother texture.
- If you prefer a sweeter sorbet, adjust the amount of honey or agave syrup accordingly.
- For a vegan option, use agave syrup instead of honey.
- This sorbet is best enjoyed on the same day but can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 days.
- To prevent the sorbet from becoming too icy after freezing, take it out a few minutes before serving to soften slightly.
