STRAWBERRY ICE LOLLIES

Ice lolly is basically fruit juice converted to flavored ice. I realized that it?s a good way to make children have fruits. Fruits can be included in your kid?s diet by presenting it in a fun and creative way.

We have been buying ice lollies from supermarkets since ages but imagine making them at home. Fresh, pure, unadulterated and it definitely tastes better. It?s simple to make at home, you just need fresh fruits (here I have used strawberries), Ice lolly moulds and a deep freezer that?s it?so?simple. It takes about 10 minutes to prepare and few hours to freeze. So plan early if you want to present this dessert to guests or to your kids.

Ingredients

Strawberries ? 500g

Water -100ml

Castor Sugar ? 100g

Method

De-stem and wash the strawberries and chop the strawberries into pieces. Place all the ingredients into a blender and blend until it becomes one uniform mixture. Pour the mixture into the ice lolly moulds and freeze until solid.

You can avoid sugar from this recipe if the fruits are already sweet. But since strawberry is sour I added sugar to the recipe.

Makes about 10 -12 ice lollies, depending on the size of the moulds.
