Lime popsicles are super refreshing and soothing to the throat. The mild spicy popsicles are a great way to satisfy hot wether thirst with a punch 🤛 of mixed fresh herbs and spicy flavor. A new way of enjoying the ice pops I must say. It tastes very similar to sweet and sour limbu paani with some extra added leafy flavor. Way too easy to prepare and healthy as well. I personally enjoyed the light spiciness in these popsicles which is different obviously from other common ones. Well, you may easily skip any of the ingredients as per your taste:) Find more Ice popsicles and ice cream recipes in this blog and enjoy making these at home.

Ingredients required to prepare Lime Popsicles

• Lime or lemon juice 1/4 cup
• Cornstarch 1 tablespoon
• Sugar 1/3 cup
• Water 2 cups

Directions to prepare Lime popsicles. Refreshing taste and flavor.

Simply use washed and clean mint and coriander leaves. Into a grinder add the fresh leaves, few black peppercorns, a little bit of ginger, a pinch of black salt, and add 1 cup of water to grind these to help prepare a refreshing juice. Transfer this green leaves mixture into a saucepan and into it then add 1/3 cup of sugar and some lime peels. Boil and cook this mixture in medium flame for 2 minutes. Finally, add the cornstarch slurry slowly into the boiling mixture and cook.

To prepare cornstarch slurry use few limes and squeeze out the juice. We need 1/4 cup of lime juice and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and by mixing these two nicely prepare a slurry to add into the boiling mixture. Once the slurry is being added give it a nice mix and continue to boil on a medium flame for 5 more minutes. Make sure to occasionally stir and cook this mixture. When the mixture looks slightly thick (Not too thick not too thin) turn off the flame and strain out the juice. The total time required to cook this mixture is 7 minutes. Do not overcook as well. Allow the mixture to cool and then transfer into the ice pop molds. Refrigerate overnight and enjoy these fresh and spicy lime ice popsicles anytime.
