Cut the watermelon into small cubes, removing seeds if necessary, and measure out 4 cups.
In a blender, combine the watermelon cubes and fresh orange juice.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth. Taste the mixture and, if desired, add 1-2 tablespoons of honey for additional sweetness. Blend again to incorporate.
Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of room at the top for expansion during freezing.
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and transfer them to the freezer.
Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the popsicles are fully set.
To unmold, run warm water over the outside of the popsicle molds for a few seconds to loosen them. Gently pull out the popsicles and enjoy!
