Minimalist Baker's watermelon slushie isn't purchased at your local corner store but is instead an organic and healthy take on the refreshing, summer treat. Made with one seedless watermelon, the recipe carves out the fruit's contents onto a baking sheet and flavors them with coconut milk, juiced lime and leftover watermelon juice.
Once mixed together, this tropical blend is crushed to reveal a smooth texture and later added back into its watermelon shell. The finished product is garnished with fresh lime slices and coconut flakes that add to its exotic flavor blend.
Specializing in guilt-free meal ideas, Minimalist Baker shows foodies how to create a watermelon slushie that tastes great without the added calories of an artificially flavored, corner store treat.
