Lemonade Popsicles

Lemons are such a versatile ingredient in sweet treats–their tartness and acidity makes them the perfect balance for sugary confections and desserts. I always find myself drawn to them, and after making honey-sweetened lemonade last weekend, I knew that I wanted to make lemonade popsicles.

These popsicles are just perfect. Lemonade can be tricky to get the sweet-tart ratio down since everyone likes their lemonade a little different. Plus, you have to deal with melting ice that is changing the sweet:tart ratio and diluting your concoction with each passing second! With these popsicles, you don’t have to worry about any of that! The ratios don’t change; although, the popsicles will definitely melt. And I think the sweet-tart balance in this recipe is perfect. Although, I must admit that I don’t like super sweet things, which probably explains my affinity for lemony desserts 😉

Anyway, do yourself a favor and make these popsicles. They only have two ingredients: lemon juice and honey. Well, three if you include the water. They’re practically healthy. It’s basically the master cleanse, but delicious, and in a popsicle. Cheers to summer everyone!
