Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Watermelon Popsicles

For a richer flavor, use very ripe watermelon.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Taste the puree before freezing and add more sugar if needed.
If you don't have rose water, you can substitute with a few drops of other extracts like vanilla or mint.
For easy removal from the molds, gently twist the popsicles while pulling them out.
