Ingredients:

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup whole milk

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2–3 lemons)

2 teaspoons lemon zest

 

Instructions:

1. Heat the base (optional for smoother texture):
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the milk, cream, and sugar. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved — about 2–3 minutes. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

2. Add lemon flavor:
Once cooled to room temperature, stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. (If you add the lemon juice while it’s hot, it may curdle — so make sure it’s cooled!)

3. Mix well:
Whisk or blend until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.

4. Pour into molds:
Pour the mixture into popsicle molds. If you don’t have molds, use small cups and popsicle sticks.

5. Freeze:
Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until fully solid.

6. Unmold and enjoy:
Run the molds under warm water for a few seconds to help release the popsicles.
