  • 1 tablespoon lime juice Freshly squeezed for best flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by cutting your watermelon into small, manageable cubes. Make sure to remove any seeds for a smooth texture!
Blending
  1. In a blender, combine the watermelon cubes, honey, and lime juice. Blend until you have a smooth mixture. If you like a bit of texture, feel free to leave some small pieces of watermelon!
  2. Don't forget to taste your blended watermelon popsicle mix! If it’s not sweet enough for your liking, add a bit more honey and blend again.
Molding
  1. Carefully pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small bit of space at the top to allow for expansion when freezing.
  2. If your molds don’t come with sticks, insert wooden popsicle sticks into each mold.
Freezing
  1. Place the molds into the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until completely solid.
Serving
  1. To remove the popsicles, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds, then gently pull out the popsicles. Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing flavors!

Notes

For the best results, let the popsicles freeze for at least 6 hours. To make the recipe vegan, substitute honey for maple syrup or agave nectar. Store popsicles in airtight containers or wrapped in plastic wrap; they can last up to two weeks.
