Ingredients
- 1 bottle Prosecco
- ½ cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 vanilla pod, halved lengthways
- 125 g fresh raspberries, torn
Makes approximately 10 x 125 ml ice pops, depending on the size of the moulds.
Freezing time 11 hours
Instructions
Combine the Prosecco, water, sugar and vanilla pod in a saucepan over a medium heat, stir until it comes to the boil and the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature, then remove the vanilla pod.
Pour the mixture evenly between icy pole moulds, leaving approximately 1 cm at the top of each mould, the liquid will expand on freezing.
Place in the freezer for 3 hours or until the liquid becomes slushy. Distribute the torn raspberries between the moulds pushing them down through the Prosecco mixture. Insert ice pop sticks and freeze for 8 hours or until frozen solid.
To unmould the pops, run the moulds under hot water for a few seconds, then gently pull the sticks, serve immediately.
