Ingredients:
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup white sugar, or to taste

1 teaspoon chopped fresh mint
1/2 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Mix water and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
2. Blend sugar syrup, watermelon, mint, lime juice, lime zest, and salt in a blender until liquefied, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into 10 ice pop molds.
3. Freeze paletas for 2 hours and insert wooden sticks or handles into the molds; return to freezer and freeze until solid, 12 to 24 hours.
