Steps

Tips

  • Adjust Sweetness: Depending on the natural sweetness of the fruit, you may not need to add any honey or agave syrup.
  • Fruit Variations: Feel free to mix in other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or mango for a colorful variety.
  • Mold Choices: If you don’t have popsicle molds, small paper cups and wooden sticks can be used as an alternative.

 

Variations

  • Coconut Water: For an added layer of flavor and hydration, use coconut water instead of lime juice when blending the watermelon.
  • Mint Infusion: Add a few fresh mint leaves to the blender with the watermelon for a refreshing minty twist.
