In the container of a blender, process together watermelon, sugar, lime juice, salt and red pepper until smooth. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a 13×9-inch freezer-sage baking dish, discarding solids. Stir in zest.. Freeze until edges begin to set, 30-35 minutes.

Using a fork, scrape mixture to break up frozen pieces. Freeze, scraping and breaking up frozen pieces every 20-30 minutes, until mixture resembles fluffy shaved ice, about 4 hours.
