Cool down with this blackcurrant, pear and apple lolly recipe. By making these yourself you know exactly what’s going into them, so you can be sure they’re packed with natural fruit and free-from artificial colourings. Make up a batch and then pop them in the freezer for whenever the sun is shining!
Ingredients (serves 4)
300g fresh or thawed frozen blackcurrant
2tsp caster sugar
200ml apple and pear juice
A lolly mould for four lollies
Method
Place the blackcurrants and sugar into a pan and heat for a few minutes until the sugar dissolves and the fruit softens.
Sieve the blackcurrants to extract the liquid only, discarding the pulp.
Divide the juice into the bottom of the lolly moulds and place in the freezer for about an hour, or until the juice has nearly frozen solid.
Carefully pour the apple and pear juice on top to fill and return to the freezer for another hour at least, or until the lollies are completely frozen.
