This looks strange at first, but the result is cold, creamy, and surprisingly close to a frozen dessert.
A current 2026 social-media trend is turning frozen fruit into an ice-cream-like treat with just a second ingredient.
Start With Half a Watermelon
Cut a watermelon in half and scoop out a portion from the center.
You want enough room to add your second ingredient later.
Freeze It
Place the watermelon half in the freezer until it’s thoroughly frozen.
This is where the transformation begins.
Add the Creamy Part
Once frozen, add a little coconut milk or heavy cream into the hollowed section.
Let it soften slightly rather than trying to work with rock-solid fruit.
Scrape It
Use a spoon to scrape the frozen watermelon together with the liquid.
The fruit gradually breaks down into a soft, scoopable, sorbet-like texture.
