2-Ingredient Watermelon Slushy Recipe

Hey guys!

I wish this summer would slooooow down! Maybe I just feel super busy and like time is flying because we had to slow down last year? Who knows! Anyways, I’ve been relying on healthy snacks A LOT this summer because I’ve been on-the-go so much and I wanted to share some of my faves with you!

First up, a 2-Ingredient Watermelon Slushie Recipe.

I was skeptical the first time I made this. I thought it would be bland and basically taste like watered down watermelon ice. NOT TRUE! This is so delicious and refreshing and sweet! My advice is don’t skip the lime – the extra zing it adds is totally necessary.

Here is what your ingredient list looks like… and a sneak peek of the slush before it freezes up!
