If you are looking for a refreshing dessert for this summer this Easy 4 Ingredient Watermelon Sorbet recipe is the answer. My hubby and I have been attempting to eat a bit better of a diet this past few weeks. He is one who is not a huge fan of fruit. I am slowly breaking him. He has a recent obsession with Watermelon (he loves my Watermelon Salsa I shared) so this Easy 4 Ingredient sorbet was the ticket. He will now be eating Watermelon sorbet on a regular basis. He says it is his new favorite summer treat. So I am really making progress, ha ha.
The baby and I shared a dish of this Easy 4 Ingredient Watermelon Sorbet after I grabbed pics and we are both loving it. So full of great watermelon flavor. I love that it is a light and refreshing dessert or treat for the kiddos.

Do you think this could be made with sugar substitute? It looks delicious!
I was wondering the same thing. I’d like to use stevia, if it doesn’t ruin the recipe.
Watermelon makes such great frozen treats. I’ll have to try your sorbet in our ice cream maker. We also like watermelon slushies, but I really want to make watermelon sherbet too.
I am making it right now with my Cuisinart frozen yogurt ice cream & sorbet maker. The recipe is easy enough 😉
Oh I am definitely going to make this!!! Thanks for sharing it with us at the #WWDParty, have a great weekend!

Yay, a sorbet that doesn’t require an ice cream maker! This looks absolutely perfect for summer, so sweet and refreshing! What do you use to puree the frozen mix before serving? A blender? Food processor? A fork?
