Ingredients
 

  • 6 cups watermelon, cut into chunks
  • 2 cup fresh strawberries, cut into chunks
  • ¼ cup monk fruit/allulose
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons lime zest

Instructions
 

  • Cut your watermelon into small chunks, making sure there are no black seeds.
  • Add the watermelon to a high powered blender or food processor.
  • Wash, hull and chop your strawberries. Add the strawberries, along with the sweetener, lime zest and juice in with the pureed watermelon.
  • Continue blending until completely smooth, then pour into a 9 x 13” casserole dish.
  • Freeze for 1 hour, then using a fork, scrape the top, particularly around the edges which will be the first part to freeze.
  • Return to the freezer for another hour, remove and scrape again. The center will be more like a slushy, so be sure to mix the edges into the center, allowing everything to freeze consistently.
  • Repeat the process 2-3 more times or until the entire mixture has crystallized and is fluffy, not slushy. The texture you are looking for is a cross between Italian ice, sorbet and a snow cone.
  • At that point, it’s ready to serve. Cover the rest and store in the freezer. Each time you serve more, be sure to fluff using a fork to keep that same texture.
