Description
A vibrant, dairy-free frozen treat made with flash-frozen watermelon and strawberries. This refreshing sorbet requires no ice cream maker and delivers a light, scoopable texture with bright citrus notes and natural sweetness.
Ingredients
6 cups seedless watermelon, cubed and frozen solid
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup liquid sweetener (honey or agave)
1/4 cup fresh mint, optional for garnish
Instructions
Slice watermelon into 1-inch cubes and freeze on a parchment-lined baking sheet until rigid (at least 4 hours)
Wash strawberries, hull them, and pat dry
In a high-powered blender, combine frozen watermelon, strawberries, lime juice, and sweetener
Blend on high until smooth and slushy, scraping down sides as needed
Transfer mixture to a lidded container and freeze until firm (2-3 hours)
Garnish with fresh mint before serving, if desired
Notes
Use fully ripe fruits for optimal sweetness
Mint is optional but highly recommended for aroma
Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks
Best served at -18°C (0°F) for optimal scoopable texture
