Refreshing Spiced Raspberry Popsicles

Introducing: Spiced Raspberry Basil Popsicles

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a refreshing and unexpected treat perfect for hot summer days: Spiced Raspberry Basil Popsicles. This unique combination of flavors will tantalize your taste buds and cool you down in the most delightful way.

Ingredients:

• fresh raspberries (200g)
• fresh basil leaves (10 leaves)
• coconut milk (200ml)
• honey (50g)
• ground cinnamon (1 tsp)

Kitchen Tools:

• blender
• popsicle molds
• fine mesh strainer

Preparation:

Start by washing the raspberries and basil leaves. In a blender, combine the raspberries, basil leaves, coconut milk, honey, and ground cinnamon. Blend until smooth and well combined.

Next, place a fine mesh strainer over a bowl and pour the mixture through it to remove any seeds or solids. Use a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible.

Now, carefully pour the strained mixture into popsicle molds, filling each mold almost to the top. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Serving:

To serve, run the popsicle molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles. Gently wiggle them out and enjoy! These Spiced Raspberry Basil Popsicles are a delightful balance of fruity sweetness, creamy coconut, and a hint of warming spice from the cinnamon.

Tips:

For extra texture and flavor, try adding a handful of crushed pistachios or chopped dark chocolate to the popsicle mixture before freezing. The unexpected crunch will take these popsicles to the next level!
