8 steps

What you need

Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Warm 120 ml (1/2 cup) of the water in a small pan until hot but not boiling.

  2. 2

    Stir in the sugar until it dissolves completely, then pour the sweet liquid into a jug.

  3. 3

    Add the lemon juice and the remaining cold water and stir. Taste: the mix should seem a little too sweet, since freezing dulls sweetness.

  4. 4

    Press a few strawberry slices against the inside wall of each mold cavity.

  5. 5

    Pour in the lemon mix, leaving 1 cm (1/2 in) of headroom because ice takes more room than liquid.

  6. 6

    Fit the lid and sticks, or insert sticks once the surface starts to set after about 1 h.

  7. 7

    Freeze until solid, at least 5 h or overnight.

  8. 8

    To unmold, dip the mold in warm water for 15-20 sec, then pull each ice pop out by its stick.
