Watermelon & Blackberry/Grapefruit Popsicles

Nothing beats fresh fruit in the heat of a desert summer. These fresh homemade popsicles kick it up a notch by being ice cold. If you do not have a Popsicle mold at home you can easily use small paper cups that you can peel off once frozen and if you plan to buy a mold then choose BPA free like you would all plastic products, you can find these on EBay.

  • 2 teaspoons sugar
