This watermelon lemon slush blends frozen watermelon, fresh lemon juice, and a touch of honey into an icy summer drink ready in 5 minutes with just a blender. Summer in a glass.

Serve it alongside our West African-style lemon pepper chicken for a backyard cookout.
Quick answer: This icy watermelon lemon slush blends frozen watermelon, fresh lemon juice, and a touch of honey for a summertime frozen drink. Ready in 5 minutes with just a blender needed.
Add frozen watermelon cubes, lemon juice, honey, and water to a blender and blend on high until smooth and slushy, about 45 seconds.
If the mixture is too thick, add a bit more water or ice cubes and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
Divide crushed ice between two tall glasses and pour the slush over the ice.
Stir well, add a straw, and garnish with a fresh watermelon wedge or lemon slice.
Yes, use 2.5 cups of fresh watermelon cubes and add 1 cup of ice cubes to the blender for the same frosty texture.
Absolutely. Agave nectar works perfectly as a 1-to-1 replacement for honey.
Serve immediately after blending, or make the slush base and keep it in the freezer, then blend with fresh ice just before serving.
