{Fruit Ice Pops}

Preparation time: 15 min (plus chilling and freezing time)

Cooking time: 5 min

Yield: 12 ice pops

Ingredients

    Strawberry ice pops:

  • 250 g strawberries, clean and chopped (9 oz)
  • 250 g simple syrup (1 cup)
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Orange ice pops:

  • juice of 4 oranges
  • 200 ml simple syrup (4/5 cup)
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Kiwi ice pops:

  • 4 kiwi fruits, peeled
  • 200 ml simple syrup (4/5 cup)
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • Simple syrup:

  • 500 g sugar (18 oz approx)
  • 500 ml water (2 cups)
  • Directions

    1. First prepare simple syrup. In a medium saucepan combine sugar and water. Bring to a boil, and allow to boil gently for 2 minutes. Let the syrup cool.
    2. Blend all ingredients (each flavour separately!) until it reaches a smooth consistency. You might wish to strain the liquid before filling the molds, but it is not necessary. Using a funnel, fill each of the Zipzicle molds to the fill line, zip shut and place in the freezer for 24 hours

NOTES:

  • Remainig simple syrup can be kept in a airtight container in the fridge, and it can be used to prepare ice pops or cocktails
  • I used these Zipzicle molds to prepare the fruit ice pops, which I bought in Ebay (2,99 $). They are reusable
