Ingredients
- 1 (750 ml) bottle dry rosé wine (about 3 1/4 cups)
- 1 heaping cup fresh strawberries (about 150 g), washed, hulled, and thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup/agave for vegan)
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 cup edible flowers (pesticide-free, such as pansies, violas, nasturtiums, or organic rose petals)
- Optional: up to 2 tablespoons simple syrup (equal parts sugar and water, dissolved and cooled)
- Optional: 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, chopped
Instructions
- Prep popsicle molds: Ensure molds are clean and dry. Set up popsicle sticks and keep everything within reach.
- Slice strawberries and prep flowers: Wash, hull, and thinly slice strawberries. Gently rinse edible flowers and pat dry. Tear large petals into smaller pieces if needed.
- Mix rosé base: In a large measuring jug or bowl, combine rosé wine, honey, and lemon juice. Stir until honey is dissolved. Taste and add simple syrup if desired.
- Add mint (optional): Stir in chopped mint leaves for a herbal note.
- Assemble popsicles: Layer strawberry slices and edible flower petals into each mold, pressing some against the sides for visual effect.
- Pour rosé mixture: Slowly pour the rosé mixture over fruit and flowers, leaving about 1/8 inch at the top for expansion. Press fruit down gently if it floats.
- Insert sticks: Add popsicle sticks. If using open molds, cover with foil and poke sticks through to keep centered.
- Freeze until solid: Transfer molds to freezer and freeze for at least 6-8 hours, or overnight.
- Unmold and serve: Run molds under warm water for a few seconds and gently wiggle sticks to release popsicles.
- Enjoy immediately or store: Serve right away or lay popsicles flat in a zip-top bag and store in freezer for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
For a non-alcoholic version, substitute rosé with sparkling pink lemonade or berry juice. Use thinly sliced fruit for best texture. Taste the mixture before freezing and adjust sweetness as needed. If fruit floats, layer it after pouring half the mixture. Popsicles keep for up to 2 weeks in the freezer. Always use pesticide-free edible flowers labeled safe for eating.
