  3. Pour the blended watermelon mixture through a fine sieve or strainer into the popsicle molds, using a spatula to gently press and extract as much liquid as possible. Discard any pulp or solids remaining in the sieve.

  4. Insert the sticks into the molds and place the filled molds into the freezer. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely solid and firm but not icy.
  5. Once frozen, remove the popsicles from the molds by running warm water around the outside for a few seconds to loosen, then gently pull to release. Serve immediately for a firm, icy treat.
