Popsicles are the perfect summertime snack. Just like my Coconut Ice Lollies, this icy treat is low in carbs and very low in calories. All you need is just a few ingredients: melons, lime and optionally your favourite low-carb sweetener. Enjoy!
If you prefer something easier and ready in half the time, just fill each pop mould with a single melon mixture. Here is the net carb count per 100 g / 3.5 oz of different types of melon:
- watermelon: 7.2 g
- honeydew: 8.3 g
- cantaloupe: 7.3 g
- galia: 5.2 g
These numbers are average and the actual net carbs content also depends on how ripe the melons are.
