CLASSIC LEMONADE ICE POPS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine ½ cup water, sugar and lemon zest.
• Bring to a boil, then decrease heat and simmer for 3 minutes.
• Set aside to cool.
• Strain syrup through sieve placed over large measuring cup, discarding solids.
• Whisk in lemon juice and remaining 2 cups water.
• Pour into molds and freeze until slushy, then insert sticks and freeze until solid, for at least 4 hours.
• If you are using an ice pop kit, follow the manufacturer's instructions.

CREAMY LEMON POPS WITH BASIL

Steps:

• Have a 10-pop (1/3 cup each) popsicle mold (or similar size) ready. Using a vegetable peeler, strip the zest of 3 lemons, taking care to leave the white pith behind. Finely grate the zest of the remaining lemon. (Save the remaining lemon juice for other use.)
• In a small saucepan, combine the zest strips, basil leaves, sugar and 1/2 cup water, then heat over medium. Cook, stirring, just until the sugar has dissolved, about 2 minutes. Cover and let steep for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Strain the sugar mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large glass measuring cup, pressing the solids to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids.
• Add the cream, milk, salt and the finely grated lemon zest, and stir to combine. Add a few berries to each popsicle mold, if using, then distribute the cream mixture evenly among the molds. Cover and freeze for 1 hour.
• After 1 hour, add the popsicle sticks and continue to freeze until solid, at least 8 hours.
• To unmold, briefly dip the mold in hot water a few times just until the pops can be pulled out.
