About Lemon Kiwi Popsicle

Lemon Kiwi Popsicle is ice bar lemonade with kiwi slices. Lemon gives refreshing taste while kiwi adds slight tanginess and soft texture once it gets frozen. Both together gives a nice balance in flavor. This combination just works well and does not overpower each other too much.

I love lemon flavour in anything so wanted to try this.Also this is the first time I am buying kiwi fruit so used it for popsicles. Lemon and kiwi compliment each other so the popsicle is a bit tangy so adjust with sweetness according to your taste.

The texture of this is icy and smooth with small kiwi pieces in between. When you bite it, first lemon taste hits strong and then kiwi flavor slowly comes after. The look is also tempting with yellow base and green kiwi slices visible inside. This recipe is very simple and easy to make at home without much effort also.

You can just adjust the sugar level or even use orange juice instead of lemon if you want some different taste. You can also add mint leaves for extra fresh feeling if liked. Flavors can be mixed and tried depending on taste. Even kids enjoy trying different fruits along with kiwi sometimes. It feels nice to have something homemade instead of buying ice bars outside.

I make this during summer afternoons at home. It is quick to prepare and kids also enjoy adding kiwi slices into the moulds by themselves. 

Lemon Kiwi Popsicle Ingredients

• Lemon juice - I just used for the base taste. You can use orange juice also if lemon feels too sharp.
• Water - I added water to balance the lemon juice and keep it light. You can reduce little water if you want more strong lemon taste.
• Sugar - I add it for sweetness so the sour taste gets balanced well. You can add more or less depending on how sour the lemons are that time.
• Kiwi - I have just used sliced kiwi for filling inside the popsicle. It adds nice fruity taste and gives soft bite while eating.

Expert Tips

• Sugar - I always taste the lemon juice before freezing. I add sugar slowly so it does not turn too sour later.
• Kiwi slicing - I slice the kiwi thin so it freezes well and looks nice inside mould. Thick slices may feel little hard while biting.
• Freezing time - I freeze it without opening in between. If I disturb it, the popsicle shape may not come proper.
• Removing popsicle - I show the mould under running tap water for few seconds only. If I keep longer, it melts fast.
• Flavor option - I sometimes replace lemon juice with orange juice for mild sweet taste. It comes good that way also.

Serving and Storage

Serve chilled immediately after removing from the mould. This goes well as an afternoon cooling snack or after lunch or dinner. Store leftover popsicles in freezer covered properly. It tastes best when finished within 3 to 4 days.
