Blueberry Basil Balsamic Popsicles

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries, hulled and chopped
  • 1/4 cup Primo's Blueberry Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tbsp fresh basil, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped blueberries, Blueberry Balsamic Vinegar, granulated sugar, and water. Blend until smooth and well combined.
  • Stir in the finely chopped basil into the blueberry mixture. Mix well to incorporate.
  • If using Greek yogurt, gently fold it into the blueberry mixture until evenly distributed. This adds creaminess to the popsicles, but you can omit it for a dairy-free version.
  • Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more sugar, according to your preference.
  • Pour the blueberry-basil mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.
  • Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely frozen.
  • Once the popsicles are frozen solid, remove them from the molds by running warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds. Gently wiggle the popsicles out and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy these refreshing Blueberry Basil Balsamic Popsicles!

**Special Tips and Variations:**

  • -For added texture and flavor, you can add small chunks of fresh blueberries or basil leaves into the popsicle molds before pouring the mixture.
  • If you prefer a smoother texture, strain the blueberry mixture through a fine mesh sieve before pouring it into the popsicle molds.
  • Experiment with different flavors of balsamic vinegar, such as raspberry or fig, for unique variations of these popsicles.
