01 -

The combination tastes like summer in a glass, with watermelons natural sweetness playing beautifully against creamy vanilla
It comes together in literally five minutes when you need something cold and refreshing right now

02 -

Frozen watermelon cubes instead of fresh ones transform this into a thick, almost soft serve texture that I honestly prefer now
Over blending can make the mixture weirdly frothy and thin, so stop as soon as everything looks smooth and combined

03 -

The riper your watermelon, the less sweetener you will need, so always taste a cube before you start blending
Using a high speed blender makes a noticeable difference in getting that silky smooth consistency
