Watermelon Ice Slice

• 1 handful candied ginger bits, the size of small to regular peas
• 2 1-inch thick cross sections of watermelon, with or without seeds
• 12-16 popsicle sticks
• 4-6 cups strawberry, peach, or grapefruit juice
• optional if using a seedless watermelon: about 25 small frozen black grapes, as pointy as possible OR about 50 Chinese salty-sweet watermelon seeds

1. Put the ginger in the freezer.
2. Cut the watermelon cross-sections, and divide each watermelon circle into 6-8 wedges, leaving the seeds if desired. Next cut away the rind. Put a popsicle stick on each. Poke each piece several times with a fork.
3. Pour the juice into a large casserole dish or similar. For 5-15 minutes, soak the wedges on their sides in the juice.
4. Push some pieces of the candied ginger into the watermelon.
5. Optional if the watermelon is seedless: cut the frozen black grapes into halves. Since they are frozen, it is easy to gently press them into the watermelon.rnrnOR for a taste-surprise, stick a few Chinese watermelon seeds into and on each slice.
6. Freeze on a tray. With waxed paper, you could make layers.
