    Title: Paletas De Melon (Cantaloupe Ice Pops)
    Categories: Desserts, Mexican
    Yield: 8 Paletas

    1/2 c Water
    1/2 c Sugar
    1 Fresh cantaloupe; (4 c);
    -chopped
    1 tb Freshly squeezed lemon juice
    1 pn Salt

    Combine the water and sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high
    heat, stirring, until the mixture comes to a boil and the sugar has
    dissolved. Let cool to room temperature.

    Pour the syrup into a food processor or blender. Add the melon, lemon
    juice, and salt and blend until smooth.

    If using conventional molds, divide the mixture among the molds, snap
    on the lid, and freeze until solid, about 5 hours. If using glasses
    or other unconventional molds, freeze until the pops are beginning
    to set (1-1/2 to 2 hours), then insert the sticks and freeze until
    solid, 4 to 5 hours. If using an instant ice pop maker, follow the
    manufacturer's instructions.

    Note: Optionally reserve the melon seeds to make Horchata De Pepita De
    Melon (Cantaloupe Seed Horchata).
