Healthy Ginger-Cantaloupe Popsicle Recipe
When I was a little girl I would watch my mom make up homemade popsicles for me and my friends to enjoy. Mom rarely purchased store-bought popsicles and was always coming up with her own recipes. Now that I’m a mom, I find myself making the homemade varieties too!
Just a little tip from me. Several years ago my mom bought us all popsicle molds from Tupperware and I swear, they’re the best molds in the world. If you’re looking to make your own popsicles, I highly recommend them.

Healthy Ginger-Cantaloupe Popsicle Recipe
3 slices of fresh ginger
1/4 cup sugar
1 ripe cantaloupe
Sliced strawberries (optional)
Popsicle forms and popsicle sticks
In a small sauce pan, add the sugar and 1/2 cup water over medium heat. Cook just until the sugar has melted. Remove from heat and drop in ginger. Set aside until cooled. (Remove ginger when ready to use!)
Slice cantaloupe in half and scoop out seeds. Spoon cantaloupe flesh into a blender. Blend until smooth.
Add just enough of the cooled ginger syrup to sweeten as desired. Save the remaining syrup for another use.
Pour into popsicle molds and freeze overnight. For a variation, push a few sliced strawberries down into the popsicle molds before freezing.
