This watermelon and lime shaved ice is perfect for a hot summer day! It is cool and refreshing and super easy to make! Great for parties or anytime! 

I have been seeing so many delicious frozen summer treats every where I look.

And lets face it, there is no better way to enjoy the summer with fresh tastes, cool treats, and all the flavors of summer.

Today my friends I have for you a treat that does all of the above. On top of that its super simple, doesn’t require any special equipment..I don’t own an ice cream maker (yet)…  and is delicious!!

Watermelon & Lime Shaved Ice

Here’s what you’ll need for this watermelon lime shaved ice :

6 Cups Watermelon cubed ( about half of a medium-size watermelon… look for seedless)

1/3- Cup Sweetened Condensed Milk

1/4- Cup Lime Juice

1/4- tsp Sea Salt

 

This is a very juicy recipe… there’s not really any way around that… you’ll be kind of sticky at the end. Combine all of the ingredients in a big bowl…

Unless you have a very large food processor or blender then put it all directly in there. I have a very tiny food processor so I had to do it in batches.

Blend or process all the ingredients together until you have a sort of watermelon soup. Now even if you have bought a seedless watermelon there will probably be some renegade seeds, this is a great time to fish them out.

Now pour it into a baking pan (8×8 or 9×9 works perfectly) and stick it in the freezer.

It is done when it is nice and firm. ( about 6-8 hours)

To serve your watermelon and lime shaved ice take a fork and scrape over the top to make it nice and fluffy, scoop out and enjoy!
