Ingredients
1.5 cups frozen strawberries
1.5 cups frozen watermelon cubes (seedless)
2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 cup ice cubes
1/4 cup cold water (add more as needed)
Instructions
1. Cut seedless watermelon into cubes and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
2. Add frozen strawberries and frozen watermelon cubes into a high-speed blender.
3. Add honey or simple syrup and fresh lemon juice.
4. Add ice cubes and cold water.
5. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until smooth and thick.
6. Taste and adjust sweetness or lemon as needed.
7. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
Freeze the watermelon cubes well in advance for the thickest slushie texture.
The lemon juice brightens the flavor — do not skip it even if you reduce the amount.
Add cold water one tablespoon at a time only if the blender struggles to blend.
Garnish with a small watermelon wedge and a fresh strawberry on the glass rim.
Swap honey with agave syrup to keep this drink fully vegan.
