BM #78 Week 1 Day 2 -
My little one loves limes, lemons, oranges, and any other citrus fruits she can lay her hands on. So if I need to convince her to try something new, I only have to add some citrus element in there and it is a smooth ride !
So I didn't have to convince her to try these popsicles. She was pestering me from the time she saw me make the limeade. So I had to placate her by offering her the cucumber limeade and then froze the remaining. In fact she helped me with the prep work.
Ingredients -
Cucumber julienned 1/2 cup
Lime Juice 2 Tbsp
Lime Zest 1/2 tsp
Sugar 2-3 Tbsp (or as needed)
Salt a pinch
Method Of Preparation -
In about 3 cups of water add the lime juice, lime zest, sugar and salt. Mix well and adjust the taste as needed.
Mix in the julienned cucumber and pour in the popsicle moulds.
Freeze for a few hours.
[To unmould, run it under warm water.]
Enjoy the goodness of cucumber limeade in the frozen avatar!!
This is for Srivalli's Kid's Delight event, themed on Frozen Food.
