This 2-Ingredient Watermelon Ice Cream Is Summer in a Pint!
When it’s blazing hot out, nothing hits like a cold, creamy scoop of watermelon ice cream. This easy Ninja Creami recipe only needs two ingredients—but tastes like a store-bought favorite.

I first made watermelon sorbet in my Ninja Creami. It turned out great—super refreshing and simple, kind of like my go-to mango ice cream or homemade Dole Whip.
But this version? Total game-changer.
It’s creamy, sweet, and tastes like childhood in a cone.
Just like my strawberry and blueberry ice cream recipes, it proves that you don’t need a long ingredient list to make something amazing.
Only two ingredients. No gums, pudding, or stuff you can’t pronounce.

What You’ll Need: Just These Two!

- Fresh Watermelon – Seedless is best. Cut into chunks and frozen for that creamy texture.
- Sweetened Condensed Milk – Adds richness and sweetness without needing extra sugar or gums.
Want to Switch It Up? Try These Tweaks
- 💡 No condensed milk? Use full-fat coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
- 🥛 No fresh watermelon? Use frozen watermelon chunks from the store.
- 🍶 No blender? A food processor works just fine.
- Add a pinch of sea salt to balance the sweetness
Let’s Make It! (The Easy Way)
All you need to do is toss the watermelon chunks and sweetened condensed milk into a blender and blitz it until smooth. That’s your base!

Pour it into a Ninja Creami Deluxe pint container and freeze it on a level surface for 24 hours. The next day, spin it on “Lite Ice Cream” mode, and if it’s a little crumbly (totally normal), give it a quick re-spin.


That’s it—scoop, serve, and enjoy your new go-to summer obsession.
