Description
Watermelon Popsicles are exactly what you need to weather the hot summer months: they’re fruity, refreshing, and sweet without being overly sugary. Plus, they only take five minutes to prep before freezing! Made with real watermelon and only two other ingredients, these popsicles can’t be beat.
Ingredients
- 1 small fresh watermelon (about 2 pounds), cubed
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
Instructions
- Add cubed watermelon, honey, and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
- Slowly pour the watermelon mixture into the popsicle molds until it almost fills to the top, leaving about a 1/2-inch space from the rim. Close the lid and add popsicle sticks.
- Transfer the filled mold to the freezer until the popsicles are frozen completely, about 4 hours (or up to overnight).
- To serve, run the popsicle mold under hot water for a few seconds to loosen and release from the mold.
Notes
Storing instructions: Keep them in the popsicle mold in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can also transfer them (once frozen solid) into a Ziploc freezer bag and store them in a single layer for up to 3 months.
