Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Start by cutting a ripe watermelon into small cubes, ensuring there are no seeds present. You’ll need about four cups of this delightful fruit for your slush.

    Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, add the watermelon cubes, fresh mint leaves, lime juice, honey or agave syrup, ice cubes, and a pinch of salt. Blend on high until the mixture becomes a smooth consistency. You may have to stop and scrape down the sides or blend in batches if your blender isn’t large enough.

      Taste and Adjust: Once blended, taste the mixture. You can adjust the sweetness by adding more honey/agave if desired. For an extra refreshing kick, consider adding a squeeze more lime juice.

        Serve: Pour the slush into tall glasses. The texture should be fluffy and light.

          Garnish: Finish your presentation by garnishing each glass with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing combination of watermelon and mint!
