- 2 1/4 cups water
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 6 limes)
- Finely grated zest of 3 limes
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 cups water
- 4 cups chopped seedless watermelon (about 3 pounds whole fruit), rind removed
- Juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups water
- 1 pineapple, peeled, cored, chopped (about 3 cups)
- Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan set over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from the heat and allow the syrup to cool.

- Remove the pan from the freezer and allow it to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes. Using a fork, scrape the fruit ice and serve it in a small bowl.
