Watermelon popsicles with lime and mint are the perfect summer treat

The great thing about homemade popsicles is that they are super easy and inexpensive to make. You can use any fruit you have. This time I made watermelon popsicles (or paletas as my kids call them) because it’s in season and we are all fans of this sweet fruit. This version includes lime juice, mint, and chia seeds for extra crunch, but you don’t really need them.
