Ingredients
- Fresh strawberries (about 2 cups, hulled)
- 1/4 cup sugar (adjust according to sweetness preference)
- 1/2 cup water (more if needed)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (for a zesty twist)
Instructions
- Wash and hull the strawberries, ensuring they are clean and free of any stems.
- Blend the strawberries until smooth in a blender or food processor.
- Combine the blended strawberries in a bowl with sugar, water, and lemon juice to taste. Adjust sweetness as desired.
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, filling them about 3/4 full.
- Insert wooden sticks into the molds and freeze for at least 240-360 minutes, or until solid.
