Fresh Watermelon Popsicles

Watermelon is perfect for summer, it’s slightly sweet, portable, affordable, and incredibly hydrating. 

A simple raw dessert using only watermelon frozen into popsicle shapes.I love adding fresh chopped basil or mint to these for an added kick of flavor.

These are gorgeous. AND healthy! What a great combination and how fun it must be for the kids to find the treasures inside the popsicles. I love this idea. 

I've made homemade popsicles so many ways! You can puree whole fruit and pour it into molds, use any type of freshly pressed juice.

Ingredients:

For 4 Servings:
4 cups chopped seedless watermelon
2 tablespoons lime juice
1-2 tablespoons sugar (as per taste)
I prefer not to add sugar
1 tbsp of grated coconut

Method:

1. Puree watermelon, lime juice and sugar to taste in a food processor or blender until smooth.
2. Put little amount of grated coconut into each popsicle molds. 
3. Carefully pour the juice into popsicle molds, insert sticks and freeze until completely firm, about 6 hours. 
4. Dip the molds briefly in water with normal temperature before unmolding.

Note: The watermelon popsicles can be frozen for up to 1 week.
