- Slice the Watermelon: Cut the watermelon into 2cm-thick slices, ensuring even thickness to hold the pops well.
- Cut into Wedges: Take each slice and cut it into triangular wedges to create manageable pop shapes.
- Insert Sticks: Make a small incision in the center of the rind on each wedge just large enough to push in a lolly stick securely.
- Freeze: Place the watermelon wedges on a tray and freeze them until solid, usually about 2-3 hours, to enjoy as frozen watermelon pops.
Notes
- Choose a ripe watermelon for the best natural sweetness.
- Ensure the incision for the stick is secure but not too large to avoid the wedge falling apart.
- Freeze on a flat tray to keep the pops evenly frozen.
- These pops are best consumed within 1-2 days for optimal freshness.
