Main Ingredients
  • 4 cups frozen watermelon cubes (seedless and fully ripe) Ensure your watermelon is of the highest quality
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice Freshly squeezed lime juice is essential for flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting a ripe, seedless watermelon into small cubes and arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Freeze the watermelon cubes for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely solid.
Blending
  1. Transfer the frozen watermelon cubes to a high-speed blender or food processor and pour in the lime juice.
  2. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides. If the mixture is too thick, let it sit for 5 minutes or add a little water.
Serving or Second Freeze
  1. For a soft-serve consistency, scoop the sorbet into bowls and enjoy.
  2. For a firmer texture, spoon the mixture into a loaf pan, cover, and freeze for another 1 to 2 hours.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to two weeks. Allow to sit at room temperature for a few minutes if it hardens too much.
