SARAH'S WATERMELON ICEES
1 watermelon
2 litres of ginger ale
1 melon baller
5-8 freezer bags
1 blender
1 hot day
Use a melon baller (mine looks like this>>>)
to make little balls out of a medium to large watermelon.
Place the little balls in 1 quart freezer bags, arranged so that there is only one layer of balls. This helps your freezer bags stack nice and flat in the freezer, and also makes it a cinch to get break the balls apart and get them out after freezing.
Let freeze at least overnight.
Pour 2 cups of ginger ale into blender. Add 6-8 frozen melon balls, blend until slushy. Keep adding ginger ale and melon balls until blender is half full with mixture.
Pour into serving pitcher.
Repeat blending process until you have desired amount.
NOTE: Three 1 quart freezer bags of melon balls (about one quarter of a medium watermelon), blended with 2 (2-litre) ginger ales,
will make enough ICEE to fill 8 water goblets.
If your guests will want seconds, make more! :)
