Method
- In a blender, purée watermelon, 1 kiwi, the sugar and the lime juice on a high speed until smooth. Strain through a sieve into a jug, scraping the sieve with a spatula to force all the liquid through. Stir in the lime zest.
- Thinly slice the remaining kiwi into 16 rounds. Stick these to the outside of the lolly moulds. Divide the mixture between 8, 100ml lolly moulds with the kiwi slices and insert a stick into each. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- To unmould the lollies, run the outsides of the moulds under hot water for 10 seconds then remove gently by the sticks (repeat if they won’t budge on the first attempt).
