This will get you through the hottest days of summer.
, I lack the tolerance to drink them. So when melon season rolls around and I get thirsty, I make my signature summer drink: this two-ingredient watermelon slush
Inspired by a beverage I grew up drinking in Hong Kong called 西瓜冰—which translates to “watermelon ice”—this refreshing cooler consists of nothing more than a very ripe watermelon and ice. In Hong Kong, a sub-tropical island of skyscrapers in the South China Sea, a hot summer day with a humidity over 90% is the norm. Weather like this calls for a lot more than just—dessert parlors serve cold tofu pudding, shaved ice, and tall, life-saving glasses of watermelon slush.
Sitting elbow to elbow on our tiny stools, my friends and I would wipe the sweat beading on our foreheads and slowly savor the cool bite of the chilled sweets. Summertime still isn’t complete without my weekly watermelon slush, and because there are no Chinese dessert parlors near me, I re-create this beloved beverage for myself every summer in my own kitchen.
The method is simple. So simple, in fact, that you definitely don’t need a recipe—just a ratio of four parts watermelon to one part ice. Here’s how to slush your way into summer mode.
