(Makes 8-10 servings)
Strawberry Lassi Ice Pop

Ingredients

  • 2 cups halved hulled strawberries or frozen whole strawberries, thawed
  • 1 cup plain yogurt*
  • ⅓ cup milk
  • ¼ cup liquid honey*
  • Pinch freshly ground black pepper

*Use at least 2% yogurt or yogurt with a higher fat content for this ice pop. Greek-style or drained (thickened) yogurt also produces a good result. Non-fat or 1% yogurt can be used but will produce an icy rather than creamy result. Use a light-flavored floral honey such as wildflower, orange blossom, acacia, or clover.

Directions

  1. In blender at medium speed, purée strawberries, yogurt, milk, honey, and pepper.
  2. Pour into molds and freeze until slushy, then insert sticks and freeze until solid for at least 4 hours. If you are using an ice pop kit, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
