Serves: 6 popsicles
Ingredients
  • Popsicles
  • 3 slightly heaping cups hulled and quartered fresh, ripe strawberries
  • ¼ cup agave*
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 3 teaspoons rosewater
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Chocolate drizzle + pistachios
  • ¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips, melted
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil, melted or vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons crushed pistachios
Instructions
  1. Combine strawberries and agave in a bowl and toss to evenly coat. Let sit for 15 minutes, or until the juices begin seeping out.
  2. Add strawberry mixture and water to a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add rosewater and let cool.
  3. Once cool, add the mixture to a blender with lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
  4. Divide between popsicle molds and freeze. After 30 minutes-1 hour, add popsicle sticks and continue freezing until completely frozen.
  5. Run popsicle mold under warm water for a couple seconds to remove the mold.
  6. Combine melted chocolate and oil and stir until fully incorporated. Working quickly, drizzle the popsicles with chocolate and top with crushed pistachios.
Notes
The total time doesn't include the time it takes for the popsicles to freeze.

*You can use white sugar instead of agave if you prefer. I've made them both ways and they turn out great. You will likely have to increase the amount of sugar since agave is sweeter.
