Low-Carb Triple Melon Popsicles

Popsicles are the perfect summertime snack. Just like my Coconut Ice Lollies, this icy treat is low in carbs and very low in calories. All you need is just a few ingredients: melons, lime and optionally your favourite low-carb sweetener. Enjoy!

If you prefer something easier and ready in half the time, just fill each pop mould with a single melon mixture. Here is the net carb count per 100 g / 3.5 oz of different types of melon:

• watermelon: 7.2 g
• honeydew: 8.3 g
• cantaloupe: 7.3 g
• galia: 5.2 g

These numbers are average and the actual net carbs content also depends on how ripe the melons are.

Step-by-step

1. Dice the watermelon, honeydew and cantaloupe melon.

   

2. Blend each melon in a separate bowl and squeeze half of a lime in each of the bowls. Optionally, add stevia to taste (5-10 drops per each bowl).

   

3. Start pouring the first layer into the pop molds. Distribute evenly and place in the freezer for about 30 minutes, just enough to get a thin layer of ice crust. If you pour all the layers on top of each other at once, they will blend together. A hour in the freezer is enough to prevent mixing.

   

4. Add the second layer and place in the freezer for another hour.

   

5. Finally, add the last layer, insert wooden sticks if your molds don't come with sticks or build-in handles and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours. Remove pops from the molds just before serving and enjoy!

   

6. Store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
