Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh strawberries
- 3 cups Moscato wine
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Roughly slice the fresh strawberries, measuring as you go by slicing directly into a measuring cup. Add the sliced strawberries to your blender once the measuring cup is full.
- Add Wine: Pour the Moscato wine into the blender with the strawberries.
- Blend Ingredients: Blend the strawberries and Moscato until they are completely combined and the strawberries are pureed to your desired consistency.
- Pour into Molds: Pour the strawberry Moscato mixture into popsicle molds. If foam or bubbles form on top, either spoon them off before pouring or wait a few minutes for the foam to settle.
- Enjoy the Leftover Moscato: Drink the remaining Moscato wine as you prepare for freezing.
- Add Sticks and Freeze: If using popsicle molds with wooden sticks, freeze the popsicles for 2 to 3 hours first, then insert the sticks. Freeze for at least an additional four hours, preferably overnight.
- Remove and Serve: To release the popsicles easily, dip the mold into warm water for about 10 seconds. Store the popsicles in a large Ziploc bag for convenience.
Notes
- Removing foam from the top before freezing can help achieve a smoother texture.
- If your popsicle mold does not accommodate sticks before freezing, add sticks after partial freezing as recommended.
- Use warm water briefly to loosen popsicles from molds without melting them.
- Store popsicles in an airtight bag to prevent freezer burn and preserve flavor.
