Frozen Sweet Tea Pops Recipes

FROZEN SWEET TEA POPS

Steps:

• In 3-quart saucepan, place tea bags and 4 cups of the water. Heat almost to boiling. Remove tea bags.
• Pour mixture into 1-gallon heatproof pitcher. Add sugar and remaining 4 cups water; stir until sugar is dissolved. Refrigerate 1 hour to cool.
• Into each paper cup, pour 1/4 cup tea mixture.
• Place small piece of foil over top of each cup. Make small slit in center of each piece of foil; insert stick. Place cups on tray. Freeze at least 5 hours.
• Tear off paper cups and serve.

HOMEMADE ICED TEA POPSISCLES

Steps:

• Measure your tea into something like a French Press (perfect for loose tea) or a jug or bowl (fine for tea bags) and pour correct ratio of hot water over it.
• Allow it to steep for about 4-7 minutes (if using double the amount of tea) OR 10-14 minutes (if using the single amount and wanting to brew it stronger).
• While still hot, strain out the tea or remove bags, and then add sweetener to taste (particularly if you're adding honey, you want it to be able to fully melt before the tea cools).
• Pour sweetened tea into popsicle molds (if they're plastic, you'll want to let it cool down first).
• Stick it in the freezer and wait patiently. :)

SWEET TEA LEMONADE POPS

Steps:

• To Make The Sweet Tea
• Bring 2 cups of water to a boil.
• Remove from heat and pour over tea bag (I used family size).
• Brew for 5 minutes, squeeze tea bag and discard.
• Add ¾ cup of sugar, stir until dissolved.
• Add 1 cup of ice and stir until melted.
• To Make The Lemonade
• In a small saucepan, stir together the sugar and 1 cup of water. Bring the mixture to a boil and continue stirring until all the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from heat and allow the syrup to cool down to room temperature.
• Stir the cooled syrup and the lemon juice into the remaining, chilled water until completely incorporated.
• To Make The Popsicles
• Fill your popsicle molds 3/4 of the way with the sweet tea.
• Add lemonade to the molds until the mixture has reached the fill line.
• Use a stirrer to gently stir the mixture to combine.
• Insert sticks and freeze. Run under warm water for a few seconds to release the frozen pops from their molds when ready to eat.
• Enjoy!
• Pour sweet tea into popsicle molds and freeze.

BOOZY PINEAPPLE SWEET TEA ICE POPS

Steps:

• 1. Make the pineapple tea. Place tea bags in a quart size glass measuring cup. Boil 3 cups water. Add to the tea bags and steep for 7-8 minutes pressing the bags gently against the side of the cup to get as much flavor out as possible. Remove the bags and squeeze any excess liquid out into cup, add in the cup of cold coconut water. Chill completely 2. In a pitcher combine all the ingredients up to the lime zest and mix well. Taste and add more simple syrup if desired. Add in a tablespoon of diced pineapple to the popsicle bag then carefully fill to the fill line with the tea mix. About 1/3 tea mix per ice pop. Place on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Repeat for remaining pops. 3. Freeze for 12-24 hours until completely frozen. The vodka will slow the rate of freezing. They will be frozen after 24 hours but not rock hard like popsicles without alcohol in them. Transfer pops to a larger resealable bag.
