WATERMELON SALAD POPSICLES

Fall is just right around the corner...but it's still pretty appropriate to indulge in popsicles. If you love watermelon, cucumber and basil, you will love this recipe. 

Enjoy!!!!! 

4 cups cubed watermelon flesh (about 1 pound, rind removed)
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
4 tablespoon filtered organic apple juice
1/2 teaspoon of diced serrano pepper (optional, sooo good, just adds a kick!)
2 med size basil leaves
1 cup sliced cucumbers
1 teaspoon of minces mint

Blend the watermelon, apple juice, serrano pepper, lime juice, basil, cucumbers and mint in a blender (or process the melon through a juicer then stir in the lime juice and apple juice). Pour the mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing the fibrous melon with the back of a spoon to extract the maximum amount of juice. Carefully pour or spoon the juice into popsicle molds and freeze until solid. If using popsicle sticks, insert the sticks when the popsicles are partially frozen.
