Coconut water edible flower popsicles

April 21, 2018 in Blog, Dessert, Recipe

These couple of month are the hottest month here in Indonesia. The sun is shining so bright and the air are too dry for us & for our skin.
Sometimes we avoid going outdoors. The air-con are on for 24hr a day.

We’re always grateful to have our house located surrounding by many garden & trees. But once in a while we do need simple and refreshing treat to relieve us from heat & dryness. And these lovely popsicles are pretty enough to feed the eyes and our taste buds!

  • Meantime, Prepare your popsicle mould. Place a few flower petal on the bottom of the mold.
  • Pour on the coconut water you have prepared inside the popsicles mold, about 1/4 high, just enough to cover the flower petal.

  • Place the popsicles molds inside the freezer for about 10-15 minutes depend on your fridge temperatures. Until it firm enough, not solid freeze.
  • Using a chopstick, "try to move" the flower petal so it sit at the center of the popsicles, put it back into the freezer.

  • I know it takes a while and need patient, but trust me it worth it.
  • Cover the popsicles mold with foil.
