Pimm’s ice lollies
Serve these naughty Pimm’s lollies instead of dessert at a summer barbecue.
Equipment: for this recipe you will need wooden lolly sticks and lolly moulds.
Ingredients
- 300ml/½ pint Pimm’s, or similar 'fruit cup'
- 850ml/1½ pints lemonade
- handful fresh strawberries, hulled, halved
- few sprigs fresh mint, leaves only
- 1 orange, zest only
Method
Mix the Pimm’s and lemonade together in a large jug.
Place a couple of strawberry halves, a few mint leaves and a little orange zest into each lolly mould.
Pour the Pimm’s mixture into each ice lolly mould until three-quarters full. Insert the lolly stick and lid and freeze for 2-3 hours, or until frozen solid.
Alternatively, you can use large shot glasses as moulds: place the strawberry, mint and orange zest into the glass and fill with the Pimm’s mixture. Freeze for 1 hour, or until the lollies are partially frozen, then insert the lolly sticks and continue to freeze until completely frozen.
To remove the lollies, dip the moulds briefly in hot water and carefully remove the lollies.
