Add one cup of unsweetened almond milk to the blender with the diced watermelon.
Pour in a quarter cup of heavy cream for richness and texture.
Add one cup of ice cubes to the mixture. This will make the shake cold and frothy.
Add five fresh mint leaves for a refreshing twist.
Squeeze one tablespoon of fresh lime juice into the blender to add a zesty note.
For sweetness, optionally add one tablespoon of erythritol or stevia, adjusting the quantity to taste.
Blend all the ingredients at high speed until smooth and frothy.
Taste and adjust sweetness or add more mint as desired.
Pour the shake into chilled glasses and garnish with extra mint leaves if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb refreshing watermelon shake!
