Watermelon Slush Puppies Without Sugar

This is something which I made for Iftar, actually I have got lots of recipes to post which I made for Iftar. Anyway I can say this is almost like a slush puppies which you can have  in Mcdonald's or any other restaurants. The actual slush puppies are with loads of sugar and ice. This one I just made with watermelon and a couple of spoons of agave syrup.

 I used the rind i.e. the inner white part, not the outer green part. The inner white part gives a good texture so don't skip that part, it's also good for health.
Serves 2
Ingredients:
Watermelon- 1 cup ( sliced into cubes along with the white rind part)
Agave syrup- 1/2 tbsp ( If you think your watermelon is very sweet, you can avoid this too)
2 or 3 fresh mint leaves
Few crushed ice cubes
Method:
Blend the watermelon, agave syrup, mint leaves and few ice cubes like 3 to 4  until it's smooth. Pour it in a freezer container, cover and freeze for 1 hour. After 1 hour take it out, mix well and freeze for another 1 hour. When the mixture is like half frozen and half liquid, take it out, just give 1 whizz in a blender to break the ice crystals. Pour it in a serving glass and serve immediately.
Tip:
Don't let it freeze for more than 4 hours, it'll freeze completely and will become like a normal ice.
Instead of agave syrup you can also use normal white sugar according to your taste.
