Did you know that August 3rd is National Watermelon Day?
I know, I know, who comes up with these national food holidays? Kurt (and I’m sure a few other people) think they’re totally ridiculous, but as a foodie, I love any excuse to celebrate my favorite foods like National Ice Cream Day. Yes, please!
As I was preparing for National Watermelon Day, (yes, I prepare for national food holidays #FoodBloggerLife 😉 ) I realized that I had a delicious watermelon cocktail to share, hello Watermelon Jalapeno Mojitos and a scrumptious entree, give me all the Watermelon Serrano Salsa on top of Chorizo Tostadas, but no watermelon dessert!
I had to remedy this situation immediately. Enter the Watermelon Lime Sherbet Float, AKA the most perfect summer twist on an ice cream float ever!
Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh watermelon cubes
- 2 tbsp fresh mint
- 1 liter lemon lime soda
- 1.5 quart lime sherbet
Add the watermelon and mint to a blender.
Blend until smooth, then transfer to a large pitcher. Add the lemon lime soda to the pitcher slowly.
Add a scoop of sherbet to a Half Pint Mason Jar
or small bowl. Pour the watermelon soda over the sherbet and serve.
Serve with small spoons, decorative straws and a watermelon mint garnish, if you’re fancy like that! 😉
This sherbet float recipe is light, flavorful and such a simple dessert for summer beach parties, BBQs or a refreshing evening treat!
