Limber de Parcha (Passion Fruit Ice Pops)

Limber de parcha are ice pops bursting with the vibrant flavor of tropical passion fruit. In Puerto Rico, limber is traditionally made in small plastic cups. Once frozen, you flip the ice pop upside down and place it back in the cup to make it easier to eat. You could also use a popsicle mold to make popsicles or paletas.

Equipment

  • 8 plastic cups with lids 5 oz (see notes for links)
  • popsicle sticks
  • Popsicle tray opcional

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tazas jugo de parcha
  • 1 taza passion fruit pulp
  • 2 tazas water
  • 1/2 taza sugar or to taste
  • 1/2 taza passion fruit pulp para adornar
  • menta fresca para adornar

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients to a blender. Blend only a couple of seconds on the lowest setting because we don't want to pulverize the seeds. Otherwise, the juice will have tiny black specs.
  • Strain the juice and pour into plastic cups.
  • Place in the freezer and freeze for about 1-2 hours. When it's halfway frozen, place a popsicle stick in the center. Optional: Add some passion fruit pulp on the top.
  • Place back in the freezer and freeze for 6 hours or overnight. Serve with fresh mint leaves as garnish. Enjoy!
