Kiwi Popsicle with Lemonade is a fabulous and refreshing tropical-inspired snack. Preparation is straightforward and takes just a few minutes: simply fill the mold with lemonade and kiwi slices. That's It!
The outcome looks tempting and would be loved by everyone.
Why We All Love This Kiwi Popsicle
Quick and Easy: Making kiwi popsicles at home is a fun summer activity. The procedure is super simple: slice the kiwis, arrange them properly in the popsicle mold, and pour in the liquid. That's it!
The Vibrant Colors: The kiwi's gorgeous green color adds visual appeal and enhances the depth of flavor and texture when you take a bite of the real fruit.
Cut Down the Time: You can reduce the prep time further by opting for pre-made or store-bought lemonade instead of popsicle liquid.
No Fancy Tools: The Kiwi Popsicle recipe does not need a fancy mold; you can use regular popsicle molds or disposable eco-friendly teacups as molds.
The Ingredients
Lemon: Select a firm, soft, bright-colored lemon without any blemishes for the fresh flavors.
Sugar: I have used refined sugar, as it does not interfere with the real flavors of the kiwi. But you can swap it with honey or homemade simple syrup.
Kiwi: Choose a ripened kiwi(it should be soft when pressed).
The Instructions
Place lemon juice, sugar, and water in a large pitcher and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Remove the skin and slice to match the thickness of the mold
Now, arrange the kiwi slices by stacking them one above the other into the mold.
Pour the liquid mixture up to ¾ of the way up the mold. Insert the popsicle sticks and freeze them for about 3 to 4 hours until they are rock hard.
Run the mold under running water to release the popsicles, then remove them from the mold and enjoy!
Pro tips.
- I prefer to have kiwi slices as a whole instead of making it puree, as it looks gorgeous, and every bite of fresh fruit makes this kiwi popsicle more delicious.
- This does not have a strict recipe; you may use any combo. You may use orange, mango, pineapple juice, or mango Lassi.
- I did not add much sugar to the lemonade, but you may add it if you prefer, or natural sweeteners like honey.
- You may use any molds of your choice. If you are bored with your regular popsicle mold, try freezer-friendly tea cups, small cups, or bowls.
- You may also puree kiwi instead of slices.
- For the best-balanced popsicle sticks, insert them into the molds after freezing them for an hour.
Storing Ideas
Remove the kiwi popsicles from the mold and wrap them individually in plastic wrap or parchment paper(to prevent them from sticking together).
Transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or air-sealed container and freeze them for up to two months.
