Directions for making Wtermelon Cucumber Mint Slushie

  • Before you begin, ensure that the watermelon is frozen because the slushie is best served chilled. Then, add the frozen cucumber, honey, lime juice, mint, and honey.

It would be best if you blend until the resulting mixture is smooth.

  • After blending, take the measuring cup or bowl and place the sieve at the mouth. Pour in the mixture from the blender into the bowl or measuring cup. This will ensure that there is no pulp in the drink.
  • After this process, your taste buds must be yearning for a taste of the drink. However, it is not yet time. You may now pour the beverage into ice cube trays and place it in the freezer for three hours or until it turns solid.

  • You may now serve in a glass and enjoy with friends and family.

Tips for Preparing Watermelon Cucumber Mint Slushies Recipe

When going to the grocery store to buy watermelon, my advice would be that you should buy it according to its weight. You may pick it up.

If you find that it produces a hollow sound when you tap it, that is what you should carry home.

Moreover, try as much as possible not to buy a watermelon that has many seeds. The seeds will only disturb you when preparing the drink and will only slow down the process.

As an expert tip, if you are that much thirsty that you cannot wait for the drink to freeze, after blending it, instead of pouring it into the ice trays, use ice cubes. This will have a similar effect.
