Watermelon Slushie with Coconut Ice
Ingredients
Watermelon Slushie
- 6 cups watermelon cubed, frozen overnight*
Coconut Milk Ice
- 1 can coconut milk (can) 13.5 oz can, refrigerated overnight
- 2 tsp. date syrup or liquid sweetener of choice**
- 1 lime juice only: use 1.5 tsp
- 3/4 tsp. vanilla extract
- 6-8 ice cubes more as needed
Instructions
- Open the can of coconut milk and remove the top cream only to a blender or food processor. Reserve the liquid for another use (like a smoothie).

- Layer alternating layer of the coconut and watermelon slushie in 4 short serving glasses or bowls, as you wish.
