Thanks for the slushie recipe. I love slushies and have been searching where to buy one online in Europe. I have not found any except commercial ones. This is the next best thing and I love watermelon. I am thinking cantaloupe would work the same way.0

Tried this recipe today and it is delicious. We left out the sugar and used the juice of one lemon with 4 cups of watermelon, diced. If you have the time, scrape the ice with a fork every 45min or hour and it makes for very small ice crystals with a really light texture.
We scooped about a half cup into a 10oz glass and topped it off with Shasta Diet Grapefruit. It made roughly 10 servings at 18 calories a piece. Delicious and super refreshing!0 -
