Watermelon-Berry Popsicles

Friday, May 15, 2015 by Lolli 39 Comments

 

Our kitchen is overflowing with watermelon, strawberries, and blueberries.

It’s a good problem to have.

We’ve had a pretty hot week, and yesterday while I was at the grocery store I considered for a moment buying a box of popsicles for the kids, but then I thought – why can’t I make my own popsicles with real ingredients that I want my kids (and myself!) eating?

While the kids were at school, I cut the watermelon, washed a bunch of berries, and made something cool and sweet and light and brilliant. I can’t wait to fill my summer with these…

Watermelon-Strawberry-Blueberry Popsicles

Watermelon-Berry Popsicles

Author: Lolli
Serves: 16
Ingredients
  • 4 cups watermelon, cut into cubes
  • 2 cups strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • ¼ cup sugar, optional
  • 3 ounce paper cups
  • Popsicle sticks
Instructions
  1. Place watermelon cubes in blender and blend for a few seconds (it doesn't take much for watermelon to be pureed). Add strawberries, blueberries, and lime juice and blend until large pieces of fruit have been pureed.
  2. Test a small spoonful - Add additional berries or sugar if needed for taste.
  3. Pour into 3 ounce paper cups and place in freezer for 30 minutes to an hour (I recommend placing the cups on a tray to make them easier to take in and out, and to ensure that they don't tip).
  4. After the popsicles have had a chance to harden (but not solidify completely), place a popsicle stick in the middle of each cup. Return to freezer and chill until frozen through.
  5. To eat, simply tear the paper cup away from the popsicle and enjoy!

Before freezing….I filled my cups just below the top

You can switch up the fruits that you use in these popsicles – add a higher proportion of strawberries or add a kiwi or some raspberries for a different flavor. The possibilities are endless! I love the lightness (and the flavor) of watermelon and so these will be perfect for a light popsicle snack on hot days.

A note about the optional sugar: usually fruit is plenty sweet enough for my taste, but since ripeness and flavor varies significantly, you might need to add a little bit of sugar. Taste your pureed fruit first before adding any sugar. You probably don’t need any.

Additional tips: to make a watermelon berry slushy drink, freeze fruit before blending OR add a handful or two of ice cubes to the blender.

I think I’ll be coming up with more fruit combinations throughout the summer, taking advantage of the fruit that’s in season and making it easy to enjoy a healthy serving of fruit everyday!

    That sounds just like us! It’s been a hot May (with just a few cool days mixed in) and I’d much rather have them eating real fruit!

    These popsicles look so refreshing and yummy! It’s still rather nippy where I live so it will still be a while before I can make them for a hot day!

    I have a link party that I am trying to grow. Because I think that my readers would absolutely love your recipe, I invite you to link it (and other links) at my Grandma Ideas Sharing Time at https://grandmaideas.com.

    Wishing you all the best,
