Ingredients

• 16 ounces strawberries, washed and hulled
• 1/2 cup simple syrup (1/2 cup sugar plus 1/2 cup water heated over medium heat until sugar dissolves)
• 1 cup red wine, I used pinot noir
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 6 ounces good quality dark chocolate, melted
• 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil, melted

Directions

• Add all of the ingredients except the dark chocolate and coconut oil to a blender or food processor and puree until they are smooth.
• Pour the mixture into popsicle molds and insert a popsicle stick.
• Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
• In a microwave safe bowl, microwave the dark chocolate in 20 second intervals stirring each time until the chocolate is just melted, be careful not to burn it.
• Stir the melted coconut oil into the melted chocolate.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.
• Remove the popsicles from the mold and dunk them in the melted chocolate.
• Lay them on the parchment lined baking sheet.
• Work quickly to avoid having them melt, then immediately place them back in the freezer to harden.
• Store the finished popsicles in a single layer in a freezer bag or airtight container in the freezer.
