Description

Frozen watermelon is a quick, refreshing freezer treat that’s perfect for smoothies, sorbets, or even fruity ice cubes. Learn how to freeze it the right way, avoid clumping, and preserve its vibrant flavor for months.


Ingredients

Scale

4 cups watermelon, cut into chunks


Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper that fits in your freezer.
  2. Spread the watermelon chunks in a single layer, making sure they don’t touch.
  3. Place the tray in the freezer and let the watermelon freeze solid, about 2 to 4 hours.
  4. Once frozen, transfer the cubes to an airtight container or zip-top bag.
  5. Seal tightly and store for up to 6 months to keep the flavor fresh.

Notes

  • You can freeze any amount of watermelon, so don’t worry about exact measurements.
  • For a fun frozen snack, insert popsicle sticks into larger cubes before freezing.
  • Frozen watermelon is best used straight from the freezer, not thawed.
  • Add the frozen cubes to water, lemonade, or smoothies for a naturally sweet chill.
