Why You’ll Love Watermelon Popsicles
These Watermelon Popsicles will become your favorite new ☀️ summer treat! By slicing the watermelon 🍉 into popsicle sticks, they’re so easy for the kids to grab and eat. Freeze them for a totally natural popsicle and have them all summer long. Adults will love these with a couple of fresh and bright flavor additions such as crumbled feta, 🌿 fresh mint or even my favorite, Tajin Seasoning.
How to Prepare Watermelon Popsicles
🔪 Using a sharp knife, cut a whole watermelon in half horizontally (or purchase half of a watermelon at the grocery store). ⬇️ Now, take half of the watermelon and place it flesh side down on a cutting board. Carefully cut the watermelon vertically into 1-2″ slices. ↩️ Rotate the cutting board and cut slices perpendicular to the other slices creating squares. 🍉 You should now be able to pull them up individually and be left with popsicle sticks which you can serve right away on a platter. 🧊 If freezing them, spread the watermelon sticks out onto a cookie sheet so that they’re not touching. ⏲️ Freeze on the cookie sheet for 3-4 hours, until fully frozen. Enjoy right away or wrap the watermelon popsicles individually in plastic wrap and return them to the freezer where they’ll keep for a few days.
