Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles

Ingredients

4 cups fresh strawberries, cleaned, dried and hulled
1/2 cup Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons, juiced)
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon zest

Directions

Place strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest in a blender jar and blend until smooth, about 45 seconds.
Pour mixture into popsicle mold. This mixture will fill a small 8-cavity mold or larger 4-cavity molds.
Place on a flat surface in freezer and freeze for at least four hours, until set.
You will be able to see some strawberry seeds in the finished popsicles. If you want to be seed-free, before pouring into molds pour the liquid strawberry mixture into a mesh strainer over a large bowl and push gently with a spatula to allow the liquid through, leaving the solids behind. Transfer seed-free mixture to the molds and freeze.

Dixie Crystals Insight

NOTE: This recipe is great for strawberries which are on their last leg and need to be used quickly. If you don’t have fresh strawberries, substitute frozen strawberries: thaw completely and allow the excess liquid to drain well before pureeing.
