Blueberry Lavender Popsicles

By gocatgo

These are densely fruity, super creamy, and not shy about the lavender at all.

Ingredients

• Blueberry Lavender Popsicles
• 1 cup lavender syrup (recipe follows)
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries (I prefer frozen, but no need to freeze if all you have is fresh)
• Lavender Syrup
• 2 cups water
• 2 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup dried lavender flowers

Preparation

Step 1

Popsicles:
Combine the syrup, buttermilk, and blueberries in a blender. Blend until smooth, and then spoon into your pop molds. Freeze for at least 4 hours before eating.

Syrup:
Makes about 3 1/2 cups. You can add it to lemonade, cocktails, whipped cream, really anything.

Combine the water and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat a bit, and let it bubble away for a few minutes. Remove from heat, add the lavender, and cover. Let it sit for 30 minutes. Strain the lavender, and store the syrup in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
