(2022) Watermelon Slushies

Recipe Author: Conne Ward Cameron

from https://sarahcopeland.substack.com/. She includes about 2 tablespoons of collagen powder in her slushies. I have never tried collagen powder so I leave it to you to decide if that’s something you want to add. I can’t see that a slushy would need that.

Preparation:

  1. Chop or dice watermelon and discard the rind.
  2. Pack into zip-top bags and freeze overnight, or up to 2 weeks.
  3. Blend 4 cups frozen watermelon in a Vitamix or blender with 2 cups water, 1/4 cup lemon or lime juice, 1 knob fresh ginger (about 2 inches, peeled), 2 scoops (about 2 heaping tablespoons) unflavored collagen powder. Pulse and blend until frothy.
  4. Drink as a slushy or pour into popsicle molds and freeze again until firm, about 3 hours and up to overnight.
