Cut the watermelon into cubes, removing any seeds, until you have 4 cups worth.
In a blender, combine the watermelon cubes with the lime juice, honey, and mint leaves.
Blend the mixture until it's completely smooth.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey.
Pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small space at the top for the mixture to expand as it freezes.
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and place them in the freezer.
Freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
To remove the popsicles from the molds, briefly run warm water over the outside of the molds to loosen them.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing homemade watermelon popsicles.
