Ingredients
-
¼ cup (55 g) organic Cane Sugar
-
1 cup (240 ml) Water
-
¾ cup (105 g) Strawberries
-
½ cup (120 ml) fresh Lemon Juice
Directions
These frozen treats are almost as easy to make as ice cubes. This recipe combines the flavors of strawberry and lemon to cool you off on a hot summer day, but feel free to switch up the fruit and juice. If you have leftover juice after filling the ice pop molds, freeze it in ice cube trays; the resulting strawberry lemonade ice cubes turn iced tea or seltzer into a refreshing summer drink. Vary the fruit and the juice to create new flavors and avoid your food allergens; pair different berries or pureed fruits with any juice. Adjust the sugar to your taste and the tartness of the ingredients you choose.
