6. In a separate bowl, whisk together honey and lemon juice until well blended.
7. Add the honey-lemon mixture to the bowl of fruits, ensuring the fruit pieces are well-coated.
8. Divide the fruit mixture evenly into 8 popsicle molds, filling each about 3/4 full to allow for expansion.

11. Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours, or until fully set.
12. To release the popsicles from the molds, run warm water briefly on the outside of the molds before gently pulling out the popsicles.
13. Serve immediately for a refreshing treat or store them in a freezer bag for later enjoyment.
