Ingredients:
- 3 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen (1 cup frozen, 2 cups fresh)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about ½ of a lemon)
- ¼ to ⅓ cup honey (adjust to your preferred sweetness)
Directions:
- Blend the Ingredients
Place the blueberries, lemon juice, and honey in a blender or food processor. Puree until the mixture is smooth. - Fill the Molds
Carefully pour the blended mixture into your popsicle molds, leaving about ¼ inch of space at the top to allow for expansion. - Initial Freezing
Place the molds in the freezer for around an hour to let the mixture begin to set. - Insert Sticks
Once the mixture is firm enough, place the lid on the molds and insert the popsicle sticks, ensuring that about 1 ¼ inches of the stick is exposed. - Final Freeze
Return the molds to the freezer and leave them to freeze completely for an additional 4 to 6 hours, or even overnight for the best results. - Unmold and Enjoy
When you’re ready to enjoy your popsicles, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to help release them. Gently pull them out and serve immediately!
