Organic Watermelon Strawberry Popsicles





This is a super-easy, really fun and totally healthy snack for kids and one that can easily be turned into an adult beverage for mom with a little vodka or tequila ;)


You will need popsicle molds - try to find ones that are BPA free, I got mine at Chef Central in Paramus.  


INGREDIENTS

1 mini organic watermelon
1/2 cup sliced organic strawberries
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons organic lemonade (Trader Joe's has some good ones)


DIRECTIONS

I do this with my immersion blender but a food processor or blender will work just as well.  
Cut open watermelon, roughly chop into about 1 inch cubes and remove any seeds.  
Blend watermelon, honey and lemonade until completely puréed.  
Pour into popsicle molds (depending on size of molds it should make 5-6) then add in strawberry slices and freeze until frozen.

That's it - these taste awesome - I know you will love them as much as your kids will!!!

Now, if you want to make some extra you can pour it over ice in a rocks glass,  add in a shot of vodka or Patron Silver and garnish with a few strawberry slices.  OR you can throw all that in the blender with a bunch of ice and have a frozen cocktail that is also pretty healthy ;)
