Ingredients

  • ½ seedless watermelon
  • sugar free lemonade*

Instructions

  • Cut the watermelon into neat bite-sized cubes. I found that the easiest way to do this was to cut the melon into thick rounds, then cut each round slice up in a grid pattern.
  • My boys enjoyed eating all the odds and ends as we went along, but you could also pop any trimmings into a bag (minus the outer skin!) and freeze for use in smoothies at a later date.
  • Line a baking tray with grease-proof or baking paper (check that the tray fits into your freezer first!) then lay out the watermelon cubes, taking care to ensure that they aren't touching each other.
  • Freeze for a couple of hours or overnight.
  • Once frozen, peel the paper away and pop the frozen melon cubes in a freezer bag to store in the freezer until ready to use.
  • When ready to serve, fill a glass with melon ice cubes and pour over sugar free lemonade to serve.

Notes

NOTES: We served our watermlon cubes with sugar free lemonade for a special summer treat, but you could add them to any drink - plain water, fizzy water or coconut water all work nicely with the watermelon.
