Servings: 5
Ingredients
- 4-5 cups of watermelon (cubed)
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup water
- Grated lime zest from 1 lime
- Mint leaves (to garnish)
Directions
- Puree watermelon along with lime juice and then strain to remove the seeds. Pour the strained puree into a 9*13 inch baking pan or any freezer safe container.
- In a separate pan, combine sugar with water and lime zest. Stir on a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Turn off the flame and allow it to cool.
- Pour the cooled lime syrup into the watermelon puree, and stir to mix it well.
- Freeze for 30 minutes (uncovered). Once it starts to set along the edges, scrape using a fork to break the ice into tiny crystals, and freeze again. Repeat this process at 30-minute intervals for the next 3-5 hrs or until it has formed a shaved ice consistency.
- Keep it frozen until ready to serve. Serve by scraping into the serving glass and top with mint leaves.
