Homemade popsicles
I know it is cooling down for most of you, but keep this in mind for summer. They are really good and you could probably cut the sugar in half, they were quite sweet. I can't see much unhealthy with them besides the sugar, which as I said could be cut in half. I will be snacking on these all summer and I can't wait to try different flavours of tea. Strawberry and kiwifruit is going to be next.
5 teaspoons of loose leaf fruit tea (I used peach and apricot)
300ml boiling water
3 - 4 tablespoons sugar, to taste (I used 3 and it was plenty
2 cups frozen raspberries (I used mixed berries)
Place tea in a heatproof jug and pour on boiling water. Add sugar and stir to dissolve. Allow to steep for 30 minutes or longer. Strain liquid. Taste for sweetness and adjust if necessary.
In a food processor, whiz raspberries and tea for about 20 seconds. Pour into popsicle moulds and freeze until solid. The mix may be frozen in a container and stirred while still mushy then frozen to make a refreshing sorbet
