Mango Ice Pops

Yield:
Makes 8 (1/3-cup) ice pops

Ingredients:

  1. 2 tablespoons water
  2. 1/2 cup superfine* granulated sugar
  3. 6 tablespoons light rum or orange juice or another fruit juice
  4. 3 cups chopped peeled mangoes (2 medium mangoes)
  5. 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Directions:

Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth, then force through a fine sieve into a large glass measuring cup. Pour into molds**. Freeze until slushy, about 30 minutes. Insert sticks and freeze overnight.

*Superfine sugar is granulated sugar that has been extremely fine-grained. Make your own by whirling regular granulated sugar in your blender until fine.

**Paper or plastic cups can be used in place of molds. Fill the cup with ice pop mixture. Cover the opening with aluminum foil. Make a slit in the foil and insert the stick.
