If you’re a fan of creamy pops, stir in one tablespoon cornstarch to make them extra smooth and not icy. For ultra lemony flavor, try using an entire small lemon instead of lemon juice (including skin and rind, removing the seeds. Puree in a food processor and add it at step 1).

ingredients

• 3 1/2 cups water
• 1 tablespoon The Ginger People Minced Ginger
• 2/3 cup honey
• 5 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 slices of lemon, thinly sliced and cut in half

directions

1. Put water and ginger in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer.

2. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

3. Pour mixture into a bowl through a fine strainer pressing down hard on the ginger with the back of a spoon.

4. Stir in the lemon juice and the honey and stir until the honey has dissolved.

5. Place a 1/2 slice of lemon in each mold.

6. Pour the mixture into your ice popsicle molds, leaving a little room for the stick (the popsicles will expand a bit as they freeze).

7. Place the lid on the mold and place in the freezer for about 15 – 20 minutes.

8. Remove from the freezer and add the sticks to the popsicles and freeze until solid, about 4 hours.

9. Let the popsicles sit at room temperature for a few minutes to loosen them up so they can easily be removed from the molds.
