Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed and frozen
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare the watermelon: Cut fresh seedless watermelon into 1-inch cubes and spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
  2. Blend to perfection: Place the frozen watermelon cubes in your blender along with the honey and lime juice. Blend on high until the mixture becomes completely smooth and has a soft-serve consistency.
  3. Serve immediately: Scoop the sorbet into bowls and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. For a firmer texture, you can transfer it to a container and freeze for 30 minutes before serving.
  4. Storage: Any leftover sorbet can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer. Let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping if it becomes too hard.

Notes

Choose ripe watermelon for natural sweetness, freeze cubes in single layer to prevent clumping, and use a high-speed blender for best texture. Customize with mint, salt, or ginger for flavor variations.
