Ingredients

• ⅔ cup sugar
• ⅔ cup water
• 2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon dried hibiscus
• 1 cup lemon juice (from approximately 7 to 8 lemons)
• 1½ cups water

Directions

• Prepare the hibiscus simple syrup. Combine the sugar, water, and dried hibiscus in a small pot and heat until the sugar melts completely and it just begins to boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let stand for 10-15 minutes while you squeeze lemons.
• Strain the hibiscus simple syrup, pressing as much liquid from the leaves as possible. Discard the hibiscus.
• Combine the hibiscus syrup, lemon juice, and water in a spouted measuring cup, giving a quick stir to combine.
• Pour the lemonade into 10 popsicle molds. Place the lid over the mold and insert your popsicle sticks as straight at possible.
• Freeze for 4-6 hours, or until frozen solid. For best results, freeze over night.
• To help remove your popsicles from the mold, fill a large bowl with warm water and briefly dunk the bottom part of the mold in the bowl or briefly run the mold under warm water.
