Watermelon Pops are the perfect dessert for summer. This Watermelon Popsicle recipe will do the trick. A refreshing blend of watermelon, kiwi and coconut milk.
Prepare paper cones (cups or molds) by placing in jars or a cone holder.
Lay out foil and popsicle sticks.
In a blender, combine watermelon, sugar, vodka and lemon juice. Blend at high speed until smooth. Skim off foam if necessary.
Divide mixture into paper cones - about ⅓ cup each. Add several blueberries, optional.
Cover tops of paper cones with foil.
Cut a slit in the foil and insert a popsicle stick. Make sure the stick is far enough down into the watermelon mixture while still leaving enough for a handle.
Freeze for 2-3 hours or until almost firm.
With about 30 minutes remaining, prepare the coconut milk by whisking together milk and 1 tablespoon sugar until smooth. Place in refrigerator to chill. Be sure the milk is nice and cold or it will melt the watermelon layer.
Add about 1 tablespoon coconut milk mixture on top of watermelon layer.Replace foil and freeze for at least 1 hour.

Remove pops from freezer and carefully pour a layer of kiwi on top of coconut milk.Replace foil and freeze at least 3 hours or overnight.
To serve, remove paper cones.
