The popsicle break was short-lived.
It’s just so dang hot, y’all! I can’t help mysel!. I actually made these during the Popsicle Week, but they didn’t make it to publication. Life, work, and all that jazz. Yada, yada, yada.
I had an abundance of kiwi in my fridge begging not to turn to slime and a honeydew melon that needed a purpose, so to borrow a phrase from Guy Fieri, they all went into the coconut water pool and became a green popsicle.
Speaking of pools, I’m on stay-cay from my real job this week, so we’re going to keep this short. I can’t leave you with images of steps like Jennifer demands, so I’ll just leave you with a bunch of photos of some green honeydew kiwi coconut popsicles.
I have the need to share my addiction.
There are worse things I could do. I borrowed that quote from Rizzo.
Have an awesome weekend, y’all!
Honeydew Kiwi Coconut Popsicles
Ingredients
- 1/2 small honeydew melon peeled, seeded, cubed
- 4 kiwi peeled and halved
- 6 ounces coconut water divided
Instructions
-
Add honeydew and 1/2 the coconut water to a food processor or high speed blender and puree until smooth
-
Pour into popsicle molds 2/3 - 3/4 way full
-
Add kiwi and remaining coconut water to a food processor or high speed blender and puree to combine - careful not to over blend because the kiwi seeds will darken the mixture
-
Top remaining space of popsicle molds with kiwi mixture
-
Cover, insert sticks, and freeze overnight
-
If popsicles don't remove easily, run under warm water for 15 seconds and repeat as necessary - careful not to get inside the molds wet

So I’m guessing you’re just laying around by a pool somewhere eating nonstop popsicles this week. Am I right?? I love the idea of honeydew + kiwi in popsicle form. Perfect for these way-too-hot summer days right now! Enjoy the vacay!
Dawn @ Girl Heart Food
Hahaha…you gave me a little chuckle there with that one of not wanting the kiwi to turn to slime….I’ve think we’ve all been there at some point or another. Well, you turned the kiwi into something delicious, that’s for sure! The colour is so pretty too. Staycations are the best! Hubby and I are having one next week and I can’t wait!!

OMG! I am not sure what I love most — these popsicles, these flavors, these colors and these textures. They so creative again, Rachelle. Honeydew and kiwi sounds like the great combo. Loving them! 🙂
Ashley@CookNourishBliss
It is definitely crazy hot out right now! These popsicles sound awesome! And they are just too darn pretty with that color!
karrie @ Tasty Ever After
This pop is so awesome, just like you! There’s been many a time my kiwi has turned into slime and I wasn’t smart enough to make popsicles like you did (clearly I suck at life). I do give overripe kiwi to Gracie and Nola but that’s going to stop now cos I’ll make your popsicles instead. Sorry girls! heeheheeheehee
Hey! Happy vaca week and live it up gurl!!

I’m loving this so much! Kiwis and honeydew in a Popsicle? Perfection! And I’m not even going to start on my obsession with coconut water. These are lovely!

Everyone is going on about the hot weather and we are just over here under the cold and grey skies. Send me some sun please, as I want to start making some of your popsicle recipes!

I need popsicles in my life right now – this heat and humidity is killer! I hope you enjoyed your stay cation, and I hope your Monday wasn’t too rough! Returning from a week off is always awful, but in the summer it’s even worse. Have a great week, Rachelle!

Honeydew is one of my absolute faves! These look so cool and refreshing! Enjoy your stay-cay, my friend!! 🙂

ummmmmm YES! This is the perfect summer treat to beat the heat. I’m always looking for creative popsicle ideas and this one fits the bill. They look sweet, healthy, and refreshing. They wouldn’t last too long around my house.
Rachel @ Mesa Cooking Co.
These look so good! I love the color and I LOVE kiwi! They’re kinda the best snack/breakfast ever so putting them in a popsicle seems like a complete win to me. Thank you so much for sharing – I will have to try these when I finally get a popsicle mold!
