Helpful Tips
- Rim the glass – While rimming the glass isn’t required it sure makes the drink look festive. Dip the rim in some honey and then multi-colored sprinkles before pouring the slushie into the glass.
- Sweeten to taste – Watermelon sweetness can vary, so taste your slushie before adding any extra sweetener. If needed, a small amount of honey or agave syrup blends in well without overpowering the fruit.
- Garnish with mint – Mint give this drink a nice finish. You could also add a lime and a squeeze of juice for brightness.
