2 Ingredients Watermelon Slushie | Watermelon Juice

My  Watermelon Slushie recipe is very simple and straightforward. It’s a just 2 ingredient recipe, one of which is of course Watermelon.

Watermelon itself is refreshing and when you have it in the semi-frozen state then its taste is just unparalleled. I think with such lovely natural drinks around, do we really need mocktails?

Just like this one, my Mango Sorbet and Litchi Granita are made easily without any ice cream maker and are a must-try in the season.

Everyone in my family loves watermelon juice as it’s really refreshing and tastes superb too. I normally take out the juice a few hours before serving and keep it in the refrigerator.

Once I kept it in the freezer for quick cooling. And, I forgot! When kids asked for something to drink then I rushed to the freezer and it was half-frozen by that time. I quickly tried to break the ice crystals with a fork and served that half-frozen half-liquidy slushie to them. And it was a HIT! They demanded more of it and since then it has become a regular at our place during summers.

Give this refreshing Watermelon Slush to your darlings after they come back from school and they will be immediately get charged and rejuvenated. And the best part is that they can have as much as they want.

Step by Step Recipe

A.  Watermelon Juice

• Roughly chop watermelon after removing its rind.
• Put the chopped pieces in the blender and pulse it for few seconds till it gets pureed fully. No, no need to take out the seeds. Even if the seeds get crushed then also no problem as unlike orange seeds these are not at all bitter. Also, do not add any water while blending. Watermelon has enough of it.
• Strain this juice. Hardly will you get any pulp but it’s done to get rid of the seeds.
• Your watermelon juice is ready.
• You can serve this as it is also after adding little rock salt.

B. Making Slushie with the Juice

• Put this juice in a shallow tray and off to the freezer.
• Let it set partially, meaning the top layer is set with liquid beneath it. It will take 4 to 5 hours (more or less, depending on the weather and your refrigerator) 
• Take it out, fluff with a fork.
• After doing so, you can again return it to the freezer and it will remain more or less like this. Just light fluffing will be good enough then.

• Add rock salt and serve. It tastes like ”Chuski” and is really very refreshing.

Tip: Add salt only at the time of serving. Do not add it earlier else the taste will be spoiled. You may add finely chopped fresh mint also at the time of serving.

Variation

•  If the watermelon is too sweet then do not add anything (omit salt then) and just freeze its juice, that too partially.
• In case it’s not so sweet, then add a little sugar powder while grinding only. Or you may add Rose syrup instead of sugar powder.

• Virgin Strawberry Mojito
• Paan Shots
• Aam Panna
• Bael Ka Sherbet
• Falsa Sherbet
• Lemon Lassi
