Spicy Watermelon Popsicles

Watermelons are a great summer fruit. But have you ever tried watermelon popsicles? This popsicle consists of both tomato and jalapeño, but is not overly sweet or spicy. The watermelon balances that. It is extremely refreshing and healthy. Plus, the heat from the peppers keeps it bright and delicious.

Whoa there! Before you throw away all those watermelon rinds, how about turning them into a sweet treat or a jam instead?
