Keeping with the no-bake theme from Monday, I thought I would finally share this watermelon sorbet with you. After the first batch was devoured, I knew that I needed to make it again for you guys!
No ice cream maker required. Just stick the watermelon in the food processor until it’s pureed and whisk in the rest of the ingredients. Pour it in a pan and stick in in the freezer. That’s all.
Okay, maybe there are a couple more steps, but not many!
Not only is it super easy to make, but it also only requires 4 ingredients, one of which is water. No excuses to not make this sorbet!
This refreshing sorbet has a watermelon base with a splash of lime, one of my favorite summer fruit combinations!
With the weather being so warm, this watermelon sorbet is the perfect cool treat after being out in the heat. (I highly recommend eating a bowl of this sorbet after a run! )
This sorbet has the best texture the same day you make it. However, all you need to do to get the smooth texture back is stick scoops of sorbet in the food processor and give them a few pulses.
You’ll soon have that smooth, fine texture again.
If you want to keep going with the pulses, you can add a little more water/ice and fresh lime juice and you’ll have a perfect summer slushie!

Julie says
I love sorbet, and watermelon is one of our faves. A little secret that I do is to put in a couple of teaspoons of vodka, it keeps the sorbet from freezing solid. If you’re going to eat the sorbet right away, or within a day or so, then don’t bother, but I sometimes make sorbet a week or two in advance, in anticipation of company, and having something homemade and yummy that I can grab out of the freezer on a hot evening, and so I add the vodka, makes it easy to scoop out. I make my own lime extract (and others), but plain ol’ vodka will do.
Maria says
I just tried this today and it came out great! I followed the recipe exactly and it tasted too sweet but I think it’s because my watermelon was VERY ripe. I just diluted it with a little water and it was perfect. It’s still freezing and I’m excited to try a bowl. Thanks for the recipe!
