Five-a-day treats: Raspberry ice lollies


Summer has arrived in Oxford: time for ice lollies! You can get a kit to make them, but I didn't have one, so just used ice cube trays and some straws.

Ingredients:

Raspberries
Apple juice
Ice cube trays
Drinking straws

Method:

- place a raspberry in each hole of the ice cube tray- cut the straw in 1.5 cm long bits and stick one into each raspberry
- fill the holes with apple juice
- place in the freezer for 2 hours

And a few tips:
- when they're done, you can put a longer piece of straw into the short one sticking out of the ice lollies, to make a longer handle. The reason for the short straw in the first place is that this way it stays upright as it is freezing.
- substitute other berries, grapes and any other type of juice

*The bold text in the recipe shows the steps that the Little Chefs did (with supervision).*
