Watermelon ice lollies
These watermelon ice lollies are deliciously refreshing and perfect for cooling down on a hot summer day.
The recipe will fill 8 medium-sized moulds but may make more if your moulds are smaller.
Ingredients
- 125g/4oz caster sugar
- 125ml/4oz water
- 1 vanilla pod, seeds only
- 600ml/1 pint watermelon juice (made from the flesh of 1 watermelon, seeds removed, blended and sieved)
- 4 limes, juice only
Method
Place the sugar, water and vanilla seeds into a pan over a medium heat. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then remove from the heat and allow to cool.
Transfer to the fridge and chill until very cold.
Add the watermelon juice and lime juice and mix well.
Pour the fruit mixture into eight ice lolly moulds and place into the freezer overnight until frozen.
