Pink Watermelon Slushy Recipes

WATERMELON SLUSHIES

Steps:

• The night before your picnic, puree 6 cups chopped seedless watermelon in a blender until smooth, pour into a shallow airtight container and freeze. Bring the frozen watermelon on your picnic (it'll double as an extra ice pack) and let thaw slightly, then mash with a fork and spoon into cups.

Steps:

• Put the watermelon cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Freeze until frozen.
• Add the frozen watermelon to a food processor. Add the Simple Syrup and 1/2 cup water and blend. Scrape down the sides and continue to blend until smooth.
• Serve as is, or add tequila or bourbon and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Or wet the rim of the glasses with the lime wedges and dip in salt if desired. Or add a squeeze of lime juice.
• Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let cool completely. Keep covered in the refrigerator up to 1 month.

WATERMELON LEMONADE SLUSHIE

Steps:

• Place the watermelon in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and freeze until completely frozen, like ice cubes, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, cook the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely melted, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the chopped basil and stir until completely wilted. Cool completely at room temperature, at least 1 hour.
• When the watermelon is completely frozen, put half in a blender. Strain the basil syrup into the blender, use the back of a wooden spoon or spatula to press down on the basil to extract as much flavor as possible, and discard the basil. Add the lemon juice, and blend until the mixture is mostly smooth, pushing it down with a wooden spoon or spatula if needed. Add the remaining watermelon, and continue to blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
• Spoon the mixture into 4 short glasses (or wineglasses, if you want to be fancy), and garnish each with a basil leaf.
