Paletas (Mexican Popsicles)

cantaloupe

cucumber

limes, (juiced)

salt

sugar

jalapeño (seeds removed and diced)

red food coloring (to enhance the color, optional)

Peel the cantaloupe and remove the seeds. Roughly chop the cantaloupe and cucumber. Place them in a blender with lime juice, salt and sugar. Puree until smooth. Check the flavor; it should be equally sweet and salty. Add a little more sugar or salt if needed.

Add half or all of the jalapeño to the blender. Pulse a few times.

Pour the mixture into popsicle holds. Freeze for one hour, then push popsicle sticks into the center of each cup and return to the freezer until solid. Usually 2-3 hours total.
