Very nice and refreshing dessert item. Super simple to make, very light, and it hits the spot on a warm afternoon/evening!

Makes for a tasty, refreshingly light finish to a meal.

One guest who enjoyed it said "This rocks. It's the definition of cool and refreshing". All four of us enjoyed it tonight; the finish to a rather spicy Thai meal.

One modification -- inspired by a recent Alton Brown episode on "melons" which featured watermelon sorbet, I added 1 tablespoon of vodka to the pureed watermelon before adding the cooled syrup. (The vodka was Grey Goose Lemon-infused Vodka.) This helped keep ice crystals from forming and the result was a smoother consistency.
