Perfect to enjoy poolside or on the back porch as another hot evening winds down. Or make a batch for the next party you’re invited to instead of bringing the “usual” bottle of wine along.

Trust me, these “grown-up popsicles” will be a hit!

How to Make Watermelon Mojito Popsicles

Watch the 1-minute video demo below, then keep reading for step-by-step instructions and printable recipe!

Cut a medium watermelon in half. Set aside one half of the watermelon, as you won’t need it for this recipe (unless you’d like to double the amount and make 2 dozen popsicles).

Remove rind from the half of the watermelon you will be using. Cut about 1/4 of the watermelon off and then cut into chunks. Set aside.

Juice the remaining 3/4 of the watermelon using a juicer.

TIP: You can also use a blender to make your watermelon juice. Just be sure to strain the pulp.

Pull the smallest leaves from your mint sprigs and set aside. Chop the larger leaves as small as possible.

Combine 1/3 cup sugar and 3 oz light rum in a large mixing bowl and whisk together until sugar is about half dissolved.

Add watermelon juice, chopped mint, and lime juice. Whisk until well combined and sugar is fully dissolved.

Add 3-4 small pieces of watermelon (that you cut up and set aside earlier) to each freezer pop bag, along with 1-2 small mint leaves. Pour your watermelon mojito mix into the bag up to the fill line and seal. Repeat for the rest of your freezer pops.

Lay flat and freeze for 2-3 hours, or until solid. Cheers!
