Watermelon Slushy
This Watermelon Slushy blends frozen watermelon cubes with lime juice, ginger ale, and a bit of sugar to create a refreshing and lightly sweet drink. The icy texture from the frozen watermelon combined with the fizzy ginger ale gives it a crisp, cooling effect that's ideal for warm days or casual gatherings. The tangy lime juice adds brightness, balancing the drink’s natural sweetness.

Notes
- Freeze watermelon cubes in a single layer on parchment-lined baking sheets before storing in a ziplock bag to prevent sticking; frozen cubes last up to three months.
- Add 1 to 2 cups of ice cubes when blending for a thicker slushy, but increase sugar and lime juice to avoid diluting the flavor.
