Summer watermelon icy poles

These healthy watermelon icy poles are as cute and colourful as they are tasty. Here’s how to make this perfect mid-summer treat.

Serves: 10

Ingredients:

Method:

  1. Using a blender, mix up the fresh watermelon until it forms a liquid. Pour it into icy pole moulds to ¾ full. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for 3-4 hours until firm.
  2. Blend the coconut water and white coconut flesh together until smooth. Add the white liquid to the mould so that it creates a thin white layer on top of the watermelon layer. Freeze for 2-4 hours.
  3. Peel and blend kiwi fruits and lime juice. Fill the last remaining space in the moulds with the liquid and freeze again until all layers are hard. Serve on a hot summer’s day.
