Popsicles are a staple of my summer, as a tasty dairy-free alternative to ice-cream. My peaches and cream popsicles are such a fun treat and there is always a store in my freezer. For a juice-based popsicle, my apple juice popsicles are so tasty and only require three ingredients!

These honeydew popsicles are so sweet and delicious, and the pops of blueberries add a nice fun touch. Super easy to make with a ripe juicy melon, both kids and adults alike will love these melon ice pops!

⭐ Why you'll love these popsicles

  • Full of fruit. We use lots of sweet fruit, and no other ingredients if you omit the maple syrup.
  • Easy to store. Keep a batch in the freezer for when a sweet craving strikes!
  • Easy to make. A very simple melon popsicle recipe that you can get kids involved in making for a summer treat.
  • Dairy-free and low histamine. If you are looking for an ice-cream alternative, these are just the thing!

🍈 Ingredients

These homemade popsicles require just a handful of ingredients and couldn't be more simple to make!

  • Melon: I use honeydew melon, but you can easily use the type you love the best or have to hand. All are delicious!
  • Blueberries: this is the fun bit and I think kids will love it - simply press blueberries into the popsicles as they freeze so you get little pops of frozen fruit dispersed through them.
  • Maple syrup: this is optional and adds a touch more sweetness. If you are happy with the fruity sweetness then simply leave out.

📖 Swap and variations

Use another type of melon. Both watermelon and cantaloupe melon make for delicious popsicles!

Leave out the blueberries. The blueberries are optional, or you could swap for stoned cherries or blackberries.

⏲️ Equipment needed

  • a Nutri-Bullet (which I use) or a blender.
  • popsicle molds.

🔪 Step by step instructions

Making your own homemade honeydew melon popsicles is so simple, and they're packed with sweet fruit.

It's a three step process:

  1. The first step is to blend the melon, together with the maple syrup, if using. It will only need to have a few seconds of pulse blending as melon has such a high water content and will turn into a thick liquid very quickly.
  2. Then pour the melon mixture into your popsicle molds. You may want to use a jug to avoid spills! Place in the freezer.
  3. After about 45 minutes, take the molds out and give the mixture a stir. Then use a spoon to press blueberries into the mold so they are dotted through the popsicle. Return to the freezer for at least six hours to fully freeze.

💭 Recipe tips and notes

  • Pick a ripe melon. You need a ripe melon as it will have the sweetness that is perfect for popsicles. Underripe won't have the same flavour.
  • The maple syrup is optional. Melon is quite sweet as it is, so you don't need to add more sweetener unless you have a sweet tooth!
  • Don't be tempted to eat too soon! The popsicles need at least six hours to freeze solid.

Hi, I’m Claire. After a diagnosis of MCAS I began to follow a low histamine diet, which has helped me manage my symptoms. Here I hope to show that a restrictive diet can still be full of flavourful meals, and help you enjoy being creative in the kitchen.
