Print Recipe

A quick and easy 3-ingredient popsicle recipe combining juicy watermelon and fresh lime juice for a refreshing summer treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (about 600 grams) cubed seedless watermelon
  • Juice of 2 medium limes (about 2 tablespoons or 30 ml)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) honey, agave syrup, or sugar
  • Optional: pinch of sea salt
  • Optional: fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
  • Optional: chili powder or Tajín seasoning
  • Optional: 1/4 cup (60 ml) full-fat coconut milk or coconut water

Instructions

  1. Cut about 4 cups (600g) of seedless watermelon into chunks, removing any seeds.
  2. Roll the limes on the counter and squeeze out about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of fresh lime juice.
  3. Add watermelon chunks, lime juice, and 1 to 2 tablespoons (15-30 ml) of honey or sugar into a blender.
  4. Blend on high for about 1 minute until smooth and vibrant pink.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness or tartness by adding more sweetener or lime juice as needed; optionally add a pinch of sea salt.
  6. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving space at the top for expansion, insert sticks, and place molds flat in the freezer.
  7. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or overnight until fully solid.
  8. To serve, run molds briefly under warm water for 15-20 seconds to loosen popsicles and remove.

Notes

Use ripe watermelon for best flavor and texture. Fresh lime juice is preferred over bottled. Adding a pinch of sea salt enhances flavor. For creamier texture, add coconut milk or coconut water. Frozen watermelon can be used but may result in icier popsicles. Run molds under warm water briefly to ease removal.
