Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups (710 ml) watermelon, cubed
- 4–5 kiwis, cubed
Dairy/Creamy Component:
- ¾ cup (180 ml) coconut yogurt
Instructions
- Slice watermelon into chunks and transform into a silky, vibrant liquid using a blender, ensuring a completely smooth consistency without any stubborn chunks.
- Carefully distribute the watermelon nectar into popsicle molds, filling approximately one-third of each cavity, then allow to solidify in the freezer for a substantial three-hour period.
- Once the watermelon layer has transformed into a firm foundation, delicately drape a gossamer layer of coconut yogurt across the surface, creating a creamy contrast.
- Return the molds to the freezer’s chilly embrace for another 90 minutes, permitting the yogurt to set and stabilize.
- Prepare kiwis by removing the fuzzy exterior and chopping into manageable pieces, then pulverize into a verdant, velvety puree using the blender.
- Gently cascade the emerald kiwi liquid over the yogurt layer, filling the molds to their summit, creating a visually striking gradient effect.
- Position the completed popsicles in the freezer’s depths, allowing them to solidify completely for approximately six hours until they reach a perfect, frosty consistency.
- Extract the popsicles from their molds by briefly running under tepid water, revealing the stunning layers of tropical flavor.
