Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh pineapple, chopped

1 cup dried hibiscus flowers

4 cups water

1/2 cup honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)

Juice of 1 lime

A pinch of salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Hibiscus Infusion: In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the dried hibiscus flowers. Cover and let steep for about 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to fully develop.

    Strain the Hibiscus: After steeping, strain the hibiscus infusion into a large bowl or pitcher, discarding the flowers. You should have a vibrant hibiscus tea.

      Blend the Pineapple: In a blender, combine the chopped pineapple, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. You can leave some small chunks for texture if desired.

        Combine and Sweeten: Pour the hibiscus infusion into the blender with the pineapple puree. Add the honey or agave syrup to sweeten, and blend until well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.

          Fill the Molds: Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top as the mixture may expand when freezing. Insert sticks into the molds.

            Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until completely solid.

              Unmold and Serve: To unmold the pops, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds. Gently pull the pops out. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh mint leaves if desired.

                Enjoy your refreshing Icy Hibiscus Pineapple Pops on a hot day!
