Ingredients
- 4 cups watermelon cubes
- ¼ cup loose leaves of fresh basil
- ⅓ cup honey
- 3 tablespoons cider vinegar (can substitute with lemon juice)
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Freeze watermelon cubes for at least 2 hours.
- In a food processor or blender, puree frozen watermelon with all ingredients until very smooth; the basil leaves should be the size of pepper flakes.
- Taste after the first puree, and adjust honey and cider vinegar to taste. Pulse to break down the chunks of melon.
- Freeze in an airtight container until almost firm (about 2 hours). Puree again to crush large ice crystals.
- Freeze until ready to serve. Garnish with basil and serve this slushy slurry immediately.
