Frozen Watermelon & Strawberry Sorbet

ByChristie Burnett Updated on

Sorbet, granita, slushie, slurpee, icee…I really had no idea what to call this delicious frozen concoction! To me it’s more a sorbet or granita but without the added sugar, however by adding a little more water or adding ice you could definitely be thinking this is a slushie or slurpee! Whatever name you bestow, this Watermelon and Strawberry freezee is the perfect afternoon snack on a hot Summers day.
