These icy-cold slushies are the perfect summer cool-down! They blend up in less than 5 minutes with only 3 ingredients and the watermelon-lime combination is out-of-this world!
Raise your hand if in the summertime nearly all of your meals contain watermelon in some form.
Okay, maybe it’s just me that’s obsessed like that….
Really though, isn’t watermelon just the best thing EVER?! My life would be just complete if I were able to get fresh melons all year-round.
For now I’ll just settle for these slushies in my life 24/7.
At the moment pretty much the only liquids I’m cravings is ANYTHING cold and preferably sweet. If you recently saw this iced tea or oh-my-goodness THIS lemonade, you probably guessed that by now….
I kinda want to be hooked up to an IV full of either of those drinks. Please? It would make my day.
It seems like almost everyone has some version of watermelon slushies, some simple, some a little more involved, but this is my version and you better believe I made it SUPER-simple for y’all.
Summertime isn’t slave-away-in-the-kitchen time. Unless you’re a food blogger and then that’s just a regular day at work.
For realz though guys, these slushies are so simple they practically don’t even need a recipe. You’re only going to need 3 ingredients: Watermelon (duh) lime juice, and ice cubes.
I told you we were goin’ simple here, guys—-It really couldn’t get any easier than this. 😉
Throw your cubed watermelon in ‘yo blender with some lime juice and ice cubes.
Give it a whirl, pour it in a glass, stick a little umbrella on top, and sip ‘er up!
That literally took what, 5 minutes? Yes. Make these slushies right now.
It may seem like an unlikely combination, but you would not BELIEVE how perfect the tangy fresh lime juice goes with the sweet watermelon.
New fav food combo right there. 🙂
These slushies are a perfect alternative to your usual sugar-filled summer drinks, since they’re completely naturally sweetened and super light on the calories.
They’re so icy-cold and refreshing, you may just have to pour yourself two glasses. Spike it up with your fav booze if this week has being hard on ‘ya. 😉
CHEERS!! 🙂

Sarah – not only are these pictures AMAZING!!! (I’m totally drooling over these photos), this drink sounds absolutely amazing for summertime! Today (and yesterday) it POURED rain!!! So hard, it was almost impossible to drive (and scary!), so it doesn’t feel much like summer the last two days – but either way – I’d take this drink ANY day!
Sarah says
Kristi, you are so so sweet! Thanks for the photography compliments girlfriend! And here’s to hoping you get some sunshiney summer days soon! 🙂
