Sweetener to taste (depending on sweetness of melon and tomatoes): honey or agave or simple syrup pinch of salt
Instructions:
- In a blender, puree together the melon, tomatoes, basil, and lemon juice. Taste the mixture—depending on how sweet (or not-sweet) it is, add anywhere from a splash to 1/4 cup of sweetener plus a pinch of salt and blend again. Adjust seasoning according to taste. When frozen, the flavors will dull slightly, so add a little more than you think is necessary.
- Pour into Popsicle molds and freeze according to the molds’ directions.
