Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups ice
- ⅓ cup cream of coconut
- 2 cups frozen watermelon
- ¼ cup almond milk
- Juice of one lime (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the ice: Add the ice into a food processor or blender. Process for about 3 minutes or until the ice becomes snow-like with no large chunks remaining.
- Mix coconut with ice: Stir the cream of coconut into the blended ice until fully combined. Divide this coconut-ice mixture evenly into glasses and place the glasses in the refrigerator to keep cool.
- Blend the watermelon: Without cleaning the processor, empty out the coconut mixture and add the frozen watermelon. Blend or process for 3 minutes until the watermelon is finely ground and slightly dry.
- Add almond milk: Pour in the almond milk and stir well to combine. Adjust quantity if desired for preferred consistency. Divide the watermelon mixture evenly on top of the coconut layer in the glasses.
- Add lime juice: Optionally squeeze fresh lime juice into each glass for an extra burst of flavor.
Notes
- Do not blend watermelon first unless cleaning the processor to avoid color mixing.
- You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice or plant-based milk.
- Adjust the amount of cream of coconut for sweetness preference.
- Use fresh lime juice to enhance the tropical flavors.
- For an extra cold slush, freeze glasses before serving.
