Ingredients
- 1 cup+ cubed watermelon, rind removed
- 1 cup+ coconut water
- Prepare Watermelon: Cut off the rind of your watermelon and chop the flesh into cubes to create fresh watermelon chunks for the sorbet base.
- Fill Container: Place the diced watermelon into a Ninja Creami pint container, filling up to the max fill line. Pour coconut water into the same container up to the max fill line to balance hydration and sweetness.
- Freeze: Secure the lid tightly and place the pint container on a level surface inside the freezer. Freeze the mixture for 12 to 24 hours until thoroughly frozen.
- Soften Before Spinning: When ready, soften the frozen pint by microwaving for 30 seconds or running the container under hot water for a couple of minutes to ease processing.
- Spin Sorbet: Insert the frozen pint into the Ninja Creami machine and process it on the sorbet setting for a smooth texture. Alternatively, the lite ice cream setting can also be used.
- Adjust Texture: If the sorbet is too dry or chunky after the first spin, re-spin as necessary until achieving a creamy and smooth consistency perfect for serving.
Notes
- Use ripe, sweet watermelon for the best flavor.
- Coconut water adds natural electrolytes and subtle sweetness without extra sugar.
- If you don’t have a Ninja Creami, a blender and freezer can be used but texture may vary.
- Re-spinning helps achieve the ideal sorbet texture without ice chunks.
- Serve immediately after final spin for best freshness and consistency.
