Day 115 — Strawberry Creamsicle Ice Pops
I got a new big bucket o’ strawberries today, so brace yourselves for more strawberry pops this week.
First up, strawberry creamsicle. It’s been a rough day, so no ingredients shot today. But I mixed 3 large strawberries with about a teaspoon each of sugar and water. I really want to say that my fruit-based ice pops don’t need sugar, but sadly that’s not the case. Adding the sugar smooths out the flavor and produces a less-icy texture.
Anyway, I also made a small amount of the basic vanilla ice pop base (I only made one pop today, so I needed only around an ounce of the vanilla).
I poured the strawberry base, waited about 20 seconds, sipped out the middle and poured the vanilla. Ten minutes later:
This pop was so, so good. Better, I dare say, then actual creamsicles. I may need to make this one again.
