Ingredients
  

4 cups ripe, seedless watermelon, cut into cubes

1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, loosely packed

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)

1 1/2 cups ice cubes

A pinch of salt (to enhance the flavors)

Extra mint sprigs for garnish

Lime wedges for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Begin by selecting a ripe watermelon and cutting it into small cubes. Ensure that the watermelon is seedless for a smooth slush. You will need approximately four cups of these juicy cubes to create the base of your slush.

    Blend the Ingredients: In a high-powered blender, combine the watermelon cubes, fresh mint leaves, lime juice, honey or agave syrup, ice cubes, and a pinch of salt. Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth and fluffy consistency. If your blender capacity is limited, consider blending the ingredients in smaller batches and then combining them.

      Taste and Adjust: After blending, taste a spoonful of the slush. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, feel free to add a little more honey or agave syrup. For an additional zesty kick, consider squeezing in some extra lime juice.

        Serve the Slush: Carefully pour the refreshing slush into tall glasses, allowing the airy texture to fill each glass generously. Aim for a light, fluffy consistency that showcases the vibrant color of the watermelon.

          Garnish: Enhance the visual appeal by adding a sprig of fresh mint on top of each glass and placing a lime wedge elegantly on the rim.

            Enjoy: Serve the watermelon mint slush immediately, embracing the delightful combination of refreshing watermelon and invigorating mint flavors!
