Watermelon Popsicles

So I was in Kuwait last October and in my usual visit to IKEA, while my eyes scout for stuff I don't have, there in a big metal bin lie these gorgeous blue and green, yellow and pink Popsicle molds. I mean without even a flicker of doubt on whether I need them? will I use them?! didn't even arise, they went straight for billing... lest I changed my mind you know later maybe......
So during the summer hols me and my lil one put them to use by making some watermelon popsicles. Ooh!!! I tell you there is no limit to the joy in licking on a popsicle and giving them all the attention - you know childish fun!!







Ingredients:
[Yields 12 popsicles[
Watermelon - 2 cups, de-seeded and diced
Sugar - only if required about 2-3tbs
Lemon Juice - 2tbs

Blitz everything into a blender and pour into the molds. Freeze them overnight and they are ready.
