Ingredients
- 1 cup+ cubed watermelon
- 1 cup+ coconut water
- Prepare Watermelon: Cut off the rind of your watermelon carefully and chop the flesh into cubes, ensuring you have at least one cup of diced watermelon.
- Fill Container: Fill a Ninja Creami pint container with the cubed watermelon up to the max fill line, then pour coconut water into the container, filling it to the max fill line as well.
- Freeze: Secure the lid on the pint container and place it on a level surface inside your freezer. Freeze the mixture overnight for 12 to 24 hours until fully frozen solid.
- Prepare for Spinning: When ready to process, soften the contents by microwaving the pint container for 30 seconds or by running the outside of the container under hot water for a couple of minutes to make it easier to spin.
- Spin the Sorbet: Place the pint into the Ninja Creami machine and select the sorbet setting. Alternatively, you can use the lite ice cream setting with equally good results.
- Re-spin if Needed: If the sorbet is too dry or chunky after the first spin, re-spin it to achieve a smooth and creamy texture.
Notes
- Ensure the watermelon is seedless or remove seeds before dicing to avoid chunks in the sorbet.
- If your sorbet is too icy after the first spin, multiple spins can improve the texture.
- You can substitute coconut water with plain water, but coconut water adds extra natural sweetness and electrolytes.
- Use fresh, ripe watermelon for the best flavor.
- This recipe requires freezing overnight, so plan ahead for preparation.
