Ingredients:

Watermelon : 4 cups

Lemon : 1

Simple syrup : 2 tbsp

Honey : 3 tbsp

Mint : 4 leaves(optional)

Preparation:

Roughly chop watermelon . Remove seeds and freeze them for 15-20 hours.

Put them into your blender in batches. Adding honey and simple syrup gradually.

They take some time as they are frozen . Run the blender at intervals.

Stop and scrape from the sides.

Add lemon juice and sweeteners depending on the sweetness of the fruits. Adding mint is optional . It gives a refreshing lift to the sorbet. Try adding a few if you have some fresh ones available.

Taste in between and grind to a smooth paste.

Transfer into an airtight container.

Level it up with a spatula.

Cover it with a cling wrap.

Close the lid and put it back into the freezer for 2-3 hours.

Check if it is set. If your watermelon was more watery than fleshy or if you had to add more simple syrup for sweetening, it will take upto 6 hours for it to set.

It is set and can be relished now.Look at that colour !
