    Now that the weather is starting to warm up, I have had a craving for some juicy watermelon. The other day I decided to pick up a watermelon from the store to satisfy my craving, the catch...it was an 8 pound watermelon! This thing is a beast! Not sure what I was thinking, since there is no way the hubby and I will be able to eat it before it goes bad, but I justified the purchase since it was on sale (I think I got it for $2!).

    Nothing screams summer like watermelon in a refreshing sorbet. This icy treat will have you begging for more!

    After making my spur of the moment purchase, I decided to whip up some watermelon sorbet to use up some of the fruit. After all, nothing screams summer like watermelon and frozen treats!

    Ingredients

    Units Scale
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 cup water
    • 8 cups cubed seedless watermelon
    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

    Instructions

    1. Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan and bring to a soft boil.

    3. In a blender or food processor, puree watermelon three-four cups at a time.

    4. Watermelon is pureed when chunks are no longer visible.

    5. Transfer pureed watermelon to a 13-in. x 9-in  pan; stir in the sugar mixture and lemon juice.

    6. Freeze for 8 hours or overnight, until watermelon mixture is firm.

    7.Right before serving, puree the watermelon mixture to a smooth consistency. Enjoy!
