Like frozen lemonade on a stick; in place of thyme, try basil, mint, or lemon verbena.

Ingredients

Makes 24 to 30 Servings

3

small bunches thyme

cups sugar

cups fresh lemon juice

Special Equipment

Thirty 2-ounce ice-pop molds and wooden sticks

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring thyme, sugar, and 1¼ cups water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Let cool, then pluck out thyme sprigs (it’s okay if some leaves stay behind).

    Step 2

    Blend thyme syrup, lemon juice, and 3 ⅓ cups water in a blender 1 minute. Pour lemon-thyme mixture into ice-pop molds. Cover and insert sticks. Freeze until solid, at least 4 hours. Dip molds briefly in hot water to release pops.

    Step 3

    Do Ahead: Ice pops can be made 1 week ahead. Keep frozen.
