Total Time 2 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups medium-sized seedless watermelon or remove all the seeds. (cubed and frozen)
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/2 cup agave or maple syrup

Instructions
 

  • Cut the watermelon into cubes, removing the rind and any seeds if not using a seedless watermelon. Spread the watermelon cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze the watermelon cubes for at least 4 hours, or until completely frozen.
  • Once the watermelon cubes are frozen, place them in a high-speed blender or food processor. Add the lime juice and agave syrup (or maple syrup).
  • Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. This might take a few minutes, and you may need to blend in batches depending on the size of your blender or food processor.
  • Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more agave syrup or maple syrup. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little bit of water, one tablespoon at a time, to help with blending.
  • Transfer the blended mixture to an airtight container. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until the sorbet is firm enough to scoop.
  • Scoop the sorbet into bowls or cones. Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired. Enjoy your refreshing vegan watermelon sorbet!
