Strawberry-Kiwi-Lime Frozen Treats
By Carol Ritchie
|
Serves 6
Stay cool this summer with fun-to-make (and fun-to-eat!) homemade frozen juice bars. A blast of fruit flavors---strawberries, peaches, apricot, kiwi, and lime---in every frosty bite!
1 cup strawberries, halved
1/2 cup sliced peaches
1/2 cup apricot nectar
1/2 tsp. lime zest
1 Tbs. lime juice
2 Tbs. sugar (optional)
1 kiwi fruit, peeled & mashed with a fork
Place all ingredients, except kiwi fruit, in a blender and blend for 20 to 30 seconds, or until mixture reaches desired consistency. Stir in kiwi fruit and pour mixture into 6 frozen juice bar (Popsicle-like) molds. (You can also pour mixture into plastic cups, cover with foil and insert a Popsicle stick in the middle---the foil helps to hold the stick in place). Freeze for 4 hours, or until firm. To un-mold, rinse the outside of the mold with hot water and carefully remove frozen juice bars to serve.
Notes:
You can also freeze the fruit mixture in ice cube trays. When frozen, pop some of the frozen cubes into a decorative glass and pour club soda or ginger ale on top to serve.
