Ingredients
Seedless watermelon (4 cups, cubed, frozen)
Frozen banana (1 large, sliced)
Fresh lime juice (2 tablespoons)
Fresh mint leaves (1/4 cup, packed)
Water (1/4 – 1/2 cup, optional)
Instructions
Add all frozen watermelon cubes to a blender
Add frozen banana slices, lime juice, and mint leaves
Blend until smooth, pausing to scrape down sides as needed
If too thick, add 1/4 to 1/2 cup water gradually
Taste and adjust acidity/sweetness if needed
Serve immediately chilled
Notes
Freeze watermelon in a single layer to prevent clumping
Use ripe banana for optimal sweetness
For best texture, let frozen watermelon sit 2-3 minutes before blending
Can substitute lemon juice for lime juice
Non-dairy alternative option: serve with vegan ice cream (not recipe-specific)
