Refreshing Homemade Watermelon Slush

Is there anything better than juicy watermelon in the summer? My kids and I look forward to this time of year so we can dig into a big bowl of watermelon on hot days by the pools. I don't think there's any other fruit more juicy and refreshing!

We love making watermelon popsicles in the summer, so I wanted to try something else with watermelon. The result? Homemade watermelon Slushie! The best part is that you only need one ingredient: frozen watermelon! Oh, and water - but that doesn't count.

I also love this recipe because there's no added sugar, just fruit. I always try to give my kids treats that are tasty but also healthy. This easy watermelon slush is definitely one of our go-to snacks for the summer!
