Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by cutting a ripe watermelon into roughly 1-inch cubes, ensuring they are uniform for even freezing. Spread the cubes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze these for at least 6 hours, or until solid.
- Once your watermelon is fully frozen, gather your ingredients. In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen watermelon cubes, freshly squeezed lime juice, coconut water, and a pinch of sea salt for enhanced flavor. If you desire extra sweetness, add agave nectar, and toss in fresh tulsi basil leaves.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it transforms into a smooth, slushy consistency, typically around 60-90 seconds. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender if necessary.
- Immediately pour your refreshing Watermelon Lime Slush into chilled cups to maintain its icy texture. Garnish with a sprig of tulsi basil or a lime wedge for a pretty presentation.
