Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
- 4 cups cubed seedless watermelon
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
- Pour water into a small, microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over the water and allow to soften for 2 minutes. Microwave on High for 40 seconds, then stir. Let stand again for 2 more minutes, and stir until smooth.
- Place one cup of the cubed watermelon into the bowl of a blender along with the lime juice and honey. Pour in the melted gelatin, and process until smooth. Add the watermelon a cup at a time, processing until smooth after each addition.
- Pour the mixture into an 8×8 inch square dish. Place into the freezer and freeze until almost firm. Transfer into a chilled bowl, then beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is fluffy, and bright pink. Scoop into serving dishes, then return to the freezer and freeze until firm. Remove from the freezer 15-20 minutes before serving.

I even eat it in the winter!
VERY NICE FLAVOR! I followed the first two steps; then did a taste test, and added the mixture to my ice cream machine. It was as simple as that! As I like sweet, I used 1 tsp. of sugar to enhance the sweetness of the watermelon. We like watermelon ice treats and we liked this. Thank you missBAKER for sharing your recipe!
Good flavor! This was yummy though we didn’t make it as the directions listed. We followed step 1 and 2 and altogether skipped step 3. The ratio of ingredients is good, but instead I scooped some of it into molds and froze it into popsicles and the rest I just ate as a slush.
Man, by the time you finish this recipe, summer will be over! Tastes OK, but too much work for a quick summer treat!
For me, way too much work for the end result. I’m a working woman with little time, so to monitor a freezer so much was too time consuming. But don’t let that stop you from trying it. Taste was fine. Nothing spectacular, but refreshing. I’d rather just throw a few cups of watermelon and lots of ice into my vitamix and make an instant watermelon slush.
