Sam has been begging for ice pops lately, but I’m not so keen on giving her frozen sugar on a stick. So we came up with this watermelon ice pops recipe, and then enjoyed some good-for-you ice pops after a summer supper with the girls the next evening.
Chop up about 1/4 of a watermelon, until you have about 8 cups. 
Fill the blen der with the cubes (you may have to do this in batches). Allow Sam a taste of watermelon:
Blend with lime juice and simple syrup:
The fill molds. This made 12 (6-ounce) ice pops.
Freeze at least 4 hours.
