Mixed Berry Ice Pops

Mixed Berry Ice Pops

Mixed Berry Ice Pops

Unlike the ice pops you probably had as a kid, these aren’t full of sugar and artificial color and flavorings.
SERVINGS: 6
⅔ c blueberries
30 small fresh mint leaves
1 ⅓ c raspberries
1 ½ c seltzer
2 Tbsp light floral honey, such as acacia
2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1. LAYER the blueberries, mint, and raspberries evenly in 6 ice pop molds.
2. COMBINE the seltzer, honey, and lemon juice in a 2-cup measuring cup, stirring gently until the honey dissolves. Very slowly pour the mixture over the berries and mint. (Leave about ½ inch of space at the top of each mold to allow for expansion during freezing. Adjust the amount of liquid you use accordingly.) Insert handles or sticks into the molds.
3. FREEZE for at least 4 hours before serving.
