Step 1.
Set a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 200g (scant 1 cup) caster or granulated sugar and 700ml (24fl oz, 3 cups) water. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until the sugar has fully dissolved. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely to room temperature.

Step 2.
In a food processor, combine the 600g (1lb 5oz) diced fresh watermelon, the cooled sugar syrup, and the juice of 1 lime. Blend until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a container and refrigerate for 2 hours until well chilled.
