Why you'll love this recipe

Watermelon is my go to during hot days like today. It keeps you hydrated, it is nice and cool and well it's just darn delicious! So making a Watermelon Coconut Ice Cream is pretty much a no brainer!
You can make this Watermelon Coconut Ice Cream in an Ice Cream machine, I simply use my little cheap Krups Ice Cream machine, but you can also make it without one. Simply pour the mixture into a container, place it in the freezer for about two hours, then remove the ice cream and place it into your mixing bowl and mix using the paddle attachment. Pour the mixture back into the container and freeze for another 4 hours at least.
