Strawberry Watermelon Sorbet 5 Minutes

This near-instant sorbet is made with simple frozen fruit, like strawberry, watermelon, and banana, and dairy-free milk or coconut water. The texture is creamy, slightly icy, and refreshing, and the taste? It’s somehow reminiscent of cotton candy. Let us show you how it’s done! First, freeze the fruit (or buy already frozen, if available).

How to Freeze Watermelon

While it’s easy to find frozen strawberries at the store, it’s unlikely you’ll find frozen watermelon. Luckily, it’s super simple to do at home. Start by cutting a watermelon into cubes or scooping into balls (make sure it’s juicy and ripe for best flavor). Then add the cubes or balls in a single layer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours or until firm. Once frozen, transfer the watermelon cubes to a sealed container or use immediately.

How to Make Watermelon Sorbet

Once the fruit is frozen, there are just 5 minutes, 4 ingredients, and a blender between you and watermelon sorbet. Simply add frozen watermelon, strawberries, and banana to a high-speed blender (or food processor) along with a little bit of almond milk, coconut milk, or coconut water. There’s no ice cream maker required here! Then blend it up, using the tamper to help if the mixture gets stuck or has trouble blending. More liquid can also be added to help it along, but it’s important to avoid adding too much or the sorbet can get too liquidy. If it’s still having trouble blending, you can try letting the fruit thaw slightly in the blender before resuming. We hope you LOVE this strawberry watermelon sorbet!
