  1. Place the watermelon chunks in the blender.
  2. Add honey or agave syrup to the blender to sweeten the mixture.
  3. Squeeze in the fresh lime juice for a hint of tang.
  4. Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high until the mixture is smooth and icy, about 30 seconds. You should see a vibrant pink slushie consistency.

Notes

For a thicker slushie, freeze the watermelon chunks prior to blending. Adjust sweetness by adding more or less honey, depending on the ripeness of your fruit.
