WATERMELON SORBET
There are no bad watermelons, but how can you improve your chances for a ripe, delicious one? The cheater's answer is to buy them at a farm stand or a farmers' market, where not only are they likely to be tastier but will also come with a seasoned pro to help. If you're in the grocery store, you might have to get a little rough: put your ear close and slap the side of the watermelon. If it makes a hollow sound, you're in business.

Transfer to a shallow glass or ceramic dish, and freeze for at least an hour.

Steps:
- Cut the watermelon into quarters and remove the pips using a teaspoon. If you're serving the same day or next day, keep six wedges or slices back for decorating and chill. Cut the flesh into 3cm cubes (you should have about 1kg fruit, with the rind discarded) and sit in a baking parchment-lined container where the cubes fit snugly. Pour the prosecco over the fruit, cover and freeze for 4 hrs, or up to 1 week.
- Put the mint, lemon and sugar in a small pan with 50ml water, and bring to a gentle simmer for 3-5 mins until the sugar dissolves and turns syrupy. Cover and leave to cool completely, then strain.
- Put the frozen prosecco-soaked watermelon cubes in a food processor with the sugar syrup. Blend well, stopping and pushing the mixture towards the blades with a spatula every few seconds, if you need to, until it's a slushy consistency. Add a splash more prosecco to make a smooth slush. Spoon or pour into six chilled glasses. Garnish with the chilled watermelon wedges and little mint sprigs.

WATERMELON SORBET
Very light and refreshing with the perfect amount of sweetness. Lime juice brightens up the flavor and adds a delightful zing. The texture is soft, reminiscent of a very light sorbet combined with a shaved ice. This is a great recipe to make with plentiful watermelon available in the summertime. It's the perfect ending after a filling summer dinner or a refreshing snack on a hot day. You could even pour a shot of Cointreau® over the top or blend the mixture with tequila and enjoy it as a boozy summer treat.
