Ingredients

  • 1 cup hibiscus flower (sorrel)
  • 1 pineapple
  • 1 orange
  • 100 g ginger
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 4 cups water

Instructions

Prepare the zobo leaves.

  • Rinse the sorrel flowers under running water, then put them in a pot.
  • Boil these for about 15 minutes with chopped ginger for about 15 minutes over medium fire.

Make the sorrel drink.

  • Toss in the pineapple slices and the orange juice. As an optional step, zest the orange peel with a grater or zester. Boil the contents for 10 minutes.
  • Let the drink steep for at least two hours before mashing the solid ingredients. Then, filter the contents with a fine-mesh sieve.
  • Sweeten it with maple syrup for sweetness.

Freeze the popsicles.

  • Pour the contents into popsicle molds and let them freeze for several hours.
  • When taking the popsicles out of the mold, it is best to submerge the molds in water for 5-10 seconds.

Notes

  • Make the juice consistency thicker to achieve a creamy instead of an icy popsicle.
  • As popsicle mold alternatives, use muffin trays, cups, ice cube trays, and other similar materials.
  • Keep them in a bowl of ice to serve at room temperature.
