Yield: ~10 pops
I have found some of the most delicious recipes on The Comfort of Cooking website recently. One of them being these watermelon cucumber popsicles which are an absolute treat on a hot summer day. Topped with a hint of fresh lime, these popsicles are so easy and so refreshing!
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 English cucumber, peeled and cut into chuncks
1 small watermelon (about 1 lb.), peeled and cut into chunks
1/3 cup simple syrup
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
DIRECTIONS:
Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and blend. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl or large liquid measuring cup to remove solids. I recommend a measuring cup as this makes pouring easier.
Pour mixture into your popsicle mold, leaving a little room at the top for the mixture to expand. Freeze for 1 hour. Insert sticks and continue to freeze for another 4-5 hours, at least.
Enjoy!
A couple tips: you can buy simple syrup pre-made at most liquor stores or make your own with this recipe. You can purchase the popsicle molds that I use here.
