Cucumber, Mint, Apple & Lime Ice Lollies

Pin It
As promised, heres the recipe for the Cucumber, Mint, Apple & Lime Ice Lolly from the Summoning the Summer Plate Lickers event.

This recipe makes enough for 10 ice lolly moulds. I bought mine through the American Amazon as I couldn't find it anywhere in the UK but you may have better luck so its worth having a look around. I'd also recommend making a smaller batch and freezing in an ice cube tray & serving in a jug of Pimms & Lemonade.

You will need
  • 150g caster sugar
  • 300ml water
  • 170g peeled & cubed cucumber
  • 350ml apple juice
  • Handful of chopped mint leaves
  • Zest & Juice from 1 lime
Begin by making the syrup. Combine the caster sugar and water in a saucepan & simmer till the sugar dissolves. Set aside to cool completely.

In a food processor combine the cucumber, mint & lime zest & juice then pulse till pureed. Next add the apple juice & syrup & pulse till combined. Pour into your lolly moulds and freeze. Its as easy as that!

  2. Love this flavour combination. I may have to try it out in the remaining few hot days left for this year. I've a large batch of mint that could do with such a use!
