5 hr 5 min

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cubed seedless watermelon
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 10 pieces ice-pop molds and wooden sticks

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1.

    Purée watermelon, yogurt, ginger, salt, 1/3 cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon lime juice in a blender until smooth. Add more sugar and lime juice, if desired. (Purée will taste less sweet once frozen, so err on the sweet side.)

    5 min

  2. 2.

    Divide purée among ice-pop molds. Freeze until mixture begins to set around edges of molds, 45-60 minutes. Stir mixture in molds to blend; insert sticks. Freeze until solid, at least 4 hours. Dip molds briefly in hot water to release paletas.
