Method
 

  1. Add the watermelon chunks and ice cubes into a blender.

  3. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and has a thick, slushy texture, about 30-60 seconds.
  4. Check the consistency—if it’s too thick, add a splash of water and blend briefly to loosen; if too runny, add more ice and blend again.
