MEXICAN PALETAS RECIPE
Steps:
- Blend: Choose the fruit you want to use, then divide it in half. Finely chop half of the fruit and set it aside. Put the remaining fruit in a blender, along with the sugar and lime juice. Blender until smooth, adding a splash of water as needed to get things moving.
- Mold: Stir chopped fruit into blended mixture. Pour into molds, leaving a little space at the top for them to expand. Firmly tap the mold on the counter to remove any air bubbles. Insert sticks and freeze until hard (at least 4 hours).
- Serve: Run the mold under warm water for a few seconds to loosen them up, then remove from the mold.

Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Combine 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat just until the sugar dissolves. Mix well and remove from heat. Let cool. Simple sugar syrup is ready to be used in any sorbet, drinks or even in desserts.
- If using whole, fresh mangoes, peel and cut mangoes into rough chunks. Blend with sugar syrup, lemon juice and chili powder to a fine puree, scraping sides in between.
- Adjust the amount of sugar syrup and chili powder according to your taste.
- Gently mix in chopped mangoes and pomegranate pearls.
- Pour this mango mixture into ice pop or popsicle molds. Insert popsicle sticks into each mold and freeze until they are solid, about 3 to 4 hours or more.
- Just before serving, run the ice pop molds under running water and gently release the popsicles.
- Enjoy!!!
Tips:
- Choose ripe mangoes: The riper the mangoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your popsicles will be.
- Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice adds a bright, tangy flavor to the popsicles. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Sweeten to taste: The amount of sugar you add to the popsicles is up to you. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. You can also use honey or agave syrup instead of sugar.
- Use popsicle molds: Popsicle molds are the easiest way to make popsicles. You can find them at most kitchen stores. If you don't have popsicle molds, you can use small paper cups or even ice cube trays.
- Freeze for at least 4 hours: The popsicles need to be frozen for at least 4 hours before they're ready to eat. You can freeze them for longer if you want, but they'll start to get icy after a few days.
Conclusion:
These Mexican mango popsicles are a delicious and refreshing treat that are perfect for summer. They're easy to make and only require a few simple ingredients. So next time you're looking for a cool and refreshing snack, give these popsicles a try. You won't be disappointed!
