Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 cups fresh watermelon chunks, seeds removed
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (natural)
  • 12 tablespoons honey (natural) or maple syrup (natural)
  • 10 fresh mint leaves
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Watermelon: Cut fresh watermelon into chunks and remove all seeds. The juicier the watermelon, the better the popsicles will taste.
  2. Blend the Ingredients: Add watermelon chunks, lemon juice (natural), honey or maple syrup (natural), fresh mint leaves, and natural gelling agent into a blender. Blend until completely smooth for a consistent texture.
  3. Pour into Molds: Carefully pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds, leaving some space at the top for expansion during freezing.
  4. Freeze Until Solid: Place the molds on a flat surface in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until completely firm.
  5. Remove and Enjoy: Once frozen solid, remove the popsicles from the molds and serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing watermelon flavor.

Notes

  • Choose ripe, fragrant watermelon for the best natural sweetness.
  • Chill your blender jar before blending to keep the mixture cold and prevent melting.
  • Do not skip the natural gelling agent to ensure the popsicles hold their shape smoothly.
  • Taste the blended mixture before freezing and adjust sweetness or acidity if needed.
  • Use silicone molds to easily remove the popsicles without breaking.
