  3. Add the gin and the tonic to the jug as well. Give everything a good stir.

Watermelon, Raspberry Vodka & Kiwi Ice Lolly

If you want to boost your vitamin intake, these fruity ice lollies are the ones for you. Watermelon is around 92% water, so it’s no wonder these lollies are so refreshing. And of course, the additional raspberry vodka and kiwi puree add that tangy taste to these little slices of cool.

Ingredients

Serves 4-6

Method

  1. Cut the watermelon up and put the chunks of watermelon flesh into a food processor and blend along with 100 ml of vodka
  2. Strain the blended watermelon mixture through a sieve into a jug or bowl.
  3. Place about 5 raspberries at the bottom of each lolly mould, you need about 1cm of space at the top of the mould, so push the raspberries down.
  4. Pour the watermelon and vodka blend into the mould and pop the mould in the freezer for an hour, or until the watermelon juice is part frozen but not totally solid.
  5. While they’re freezing, remove the skin from the kiwis and dice up the flesh.
  6. Add the diced kiwi fruit to the top of the mould, press them down so it’s packed in, top with your lemonade or clear juice. 
  7. Put a stick in each mould and pop them back in the freezer until fully frozen.
