Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Fresh lemons
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 cups Water
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
Instructions
Juice the lemons to yield approximately 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain the juice to remove seeds and pulp, if desired.
In a medium bowl or measuring cup, mix the lemon juice with the granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Add 2 cups of water to the sweetened lemon juice and mix well to combine.
Stir in the lemon zest to enhance the flavor. If you prefer a slightly sweeter ice pop, add honey and mix thoroughly until dissolved.
Carefully pour the lemonade mixture into ice pop molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
Insert sticks into the molds and place the molds in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until fully solid.
To release the ice pops from the molds, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them.
Serve immediately and enjoy these bright, refreshing lemonade ice pops!
