Ingredients
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar 150 grams
- 3/4 cup water 177 milliliters
- 1 watermelon small
- 4 cups ice cubes 575 grams
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips mini, 80 grams
- sweetened condensed milk for drizzling
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, place the sugar and water over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, whisking often until the sugar is dissolved and the liquid is slightly thickened, about 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool completely to room temperature.
- Wash the small watermelon and cut in half.
- Scoop out 18 ounces (510 grams) of the fresh watermelon and place in a blender.
- Blend over low speed until completely smooth.
- Strain the watermelon puree though a fine mesh strainer into the simple syrup, pressing down with a spoon to release as much liquid as possible, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Use a melon baller to scoop the rest of the fresh watermelon into balls and place in an airtight container. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.
- Once the watermelon halves are completely scooped out, place them in the freezer to chill until ready to assemble and use as bowls.
- Place one chilled watermelon bowl under the shave ice machine and add 2 cups (288 grams) of the ice cubes to the machine according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Fill the watermelon bowl halfway with the shave ice, then add a heavy drizzle of the watermelon syrup, a couple watermelon balls, and sprinkling of chocolate chips to the center.
- Cover with more of the shave ice until filled.
- Decorate with the fresh watermelon balls, mini chocolate chips, and add watermelon syrup to taste.
- Repeat with other watermelon bowl and ice.
- Serve immediately with a drizzle of sweetened condensed milk if desired.
