Looking for a refreshing treat that is low in calories, healthy, and contains just the “right” amount of sweetness? Look no further because this icy watermelon slushie is perfect! Did I mention how easy it is? Seriously, just some chunks of juicy melon, ice, lime juice and that is it if your melon is ripe. If not, a little honey can go a long way too!
The best part of making watermelon slushies is that you can also add the puree to ice pop makers and make yourself some refreshing pops. This might be an easier way for little ones to enjoy this slush with hopefully less mess! I know my kiddos always find a way to turn a few sips of a drink into a mess!
This drink is great for those looking to increase their fiber intake since watermelon does contain a dietary fiber. It is also a great source of lycopene, and helps you stay hydrated even when you don’t feel like drinking plain old water. 
Plus, since it is the summer you can find it on sale at your local grocer!

Watermelon agua frescas and slushies are my FAVORITES! Really… watermelon anything. I had to pin this for later!

My family loves watermelon and we never get tired of it. I’ve never tried it in a slushie or beverage before, so I’ll definitely have to give this a go.
