Refreshing Mango Basil Popsicles Recipe

Today’s Recipe: Tangy Mango Basil Popsicles

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share a refreshing and unique treat perfect for a hot summer day — Tangy Mango Basil Popsicles. The combination of sweet mangoes and fresh basil creates a burst of flavor that will leave you craving more. Let’s dive into the recipe!

Ingredients:

• 2 ripe mangoes (about 400g)
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1/2 cup water

Kitchen Tools:

• blender
• popsicle molds
• wooden popsicle sticks

Start by placing the diced mangoes, basil leaves, honey, lime juice, and water in a blender. Blend until smooth and fully combined, creating a vibrant yellow-green mixture. The aroma of the sweet mangoes and fragrant basil will fill your kitchen.

Next, carefully pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little room at the top for expansion. Insert wooden popsicle sticks into each mold, making sure they stand upright. Place the molds in the freezer and let them set for at least 4 hours, or until completely frozen.

Once the popsicles are frozen solid, remove them from the molds by running warm water over the outside of each mold. The popsicles should easily slide out, ready to be enjoyed immediately.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 500g, with enough to make 6 popsicles. Each serving weighs around 83g, containing approximately 70 calories per popsicle.

One unique tip to enhance the flavor of these popsicles is to sprinkle a pinch of finely chopped fresh basil over the tops before freezing. This adds a beautiful touch and an extra burst of basil flavor with every lick.

I hope you give these Tangy Mango Basil Popsicles a try and enjoy them as much as I do. Feel free to get creative and modify the recipe to suit your taste preferences. Stay cool and refreshed with this delightful summer treat!
