ingredients:
- 10 cups seedless watermelon cubes, frozen 24 hours
- 2–4 tablespoons maple syrup, depending on sweetness desired
- Juice of 1 large lime
- 1 1/2 cup filtered water or sparkling water
- 1/4 cup fresh mint or basil leaves
directions:
- Defrost frozen watermelon chunks at room temperature for 5-10 minutes.
- Add watermelon, maple syrup, lime juice, mint and water to a high-speed blender or food processor.
- Pulse ingredients until watermelon starts to break up; blend to form thick consistency. Adjust syrup to taste or use a sweetener instead. Water quantity also can be adjusted, if desired, especially if serving with straws.
- Divide equally among glasses; garish with mint, lime slices or extra watermelon wedges; serve and enjoy!
