Watermelon Slush
You won’t believe that this comes together in just 5 minutes with only 3 ingredients. How easy is that?!
With Memorial Day coming up tomorrow, you know you can’t have a Memorial Day party without a refreshing pitcher of watermelon slush. Plus, this recipe comes together with just 3 ingredients, a blender and 5 minutes. That’s it!
Really, though, this comes together in literally 5 minutes. All you need to do is slice up your watermelon, throw it in a blender with some ice and sugar, and press start. Easy peasy.
You can even add a little bit of freshly squeezed lime juice for a bit of tanginess but I kept mine nice and simple with a little bit of vodka. Hey, a little bit of vodka is always necessary, right?
Watermelon Slush
Ingredients
- 5 cups diced seedless watermelon

can you do this with cantelope
Unfortunately, I cannot answer this with certainty as I have never tried it myself. I worry that it may not be as “slushy” as the use of watermelon.
Yes!
The added sugar should really not be needed!
You can certainly omit the sugar to taste. I included the sugar in this recipe to give the option to add a little bit in case the watermelon is not too sweet/ripe.
I’m soooo into watermelon and love all summer fruits! If you strain the blended mixture you’ll have what they call agua fresca and it’s absolutely light & refreshing! I add shots of vodka to mine too!
I made this with honeydew and it was wonderful! Thank you!!
This looks so refreshing! I can see myself drinking a lot of these this summer.
That looks so refreshing! Perfect for a hot summer day…
I seriously need some more creative recipes for watermelon other than just eating it.
‘Cause, well, that isn’t a recipe.
So, I am ALL over this – perfect for the Florida heat! Pinned! 🙂
Okay, this needs to be in my hand, STAT. What a great recipe!!
Love watermelon! and with vodka? always! One of my most favorite and delicious ways to quench the thirst!

Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
I need a tall one of these by the pool today, love!
I’ve made this with tequila also! YUMMY
Watermelon is definitely a warm weather fave – so refreshing! I made something similar last week and froze half the batch for popsicles. Yum!
Remember when I was going to do that raspberry recipe and then you told me you were doing one, and then I turned it into a slushie recipe, and now you have one…girl we couldn’t have planned this if we tried 🙂 Same wavelength. Except you forgot to add booze to yours 🙂 Seriously though gorgeous images and I bet so so refreshing!
Or even some tequila? This looks lovely!
I’m so crazy about watermelon right now and this looks like pure perfection!
