Next, add in gummy watermelon candy! Totally optional but it adds texture, flavor, and something sweet to the popsicles.
Then, add in popsicles sticks and freeze overnight.
Lastly, to remove the mold run warm water over the bottom of the popsicles molds until the popsicles easily slide out. Do not tug or the popsicle can break.
