Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of light sour cream, 1/2 cup of condensed milk, 1 tbsp of lime zest, and 3/4 cup of lime juice.
- Whisk the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
- Pour the creamy lime mixture into ice block molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top for expansion.
- Insert ice block sticks into each mold.
- Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of water.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has completely dissolved to create a simple syrup.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the simple syrup cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, stir in 1 cup of sour cream and 3/4 cup of rum until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
- Pour the mojito mixture into separate ice block molds, following the same steps as with the creamy lime mixture. Leave a small amount of space at the top for expansion.
- Insert ice block sticks into each mold.
- Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
- Once both the creamy lime ice blocks and mojito ice are fully frozen, remove them from their molds by running warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing, creamy lime ice blocks and mojito ice on a hot day!
Tips:
- Ensure your lime juice is freshly squeezed for the best flavor.
- Freeze the mojito mixture separately from the creamy lime mixture and combine just before serving for a layered effect.
- Use silicone molds for easy removal of the ice blocks.
- Garnish with extra lime zest or mint leaves for a decorative touch.
- Consider reducing the rum if you prefer a lighter alcoholic taste or making a non-alcoholic version by replacing rum with club soda.
In no time, you have delicious, creamy lime ice blocks with a hint of mojito to enjoy. These ice blocks are not only a refreshing treat but also a great conversation starter for any summer party. Remember to store your ice blocks in the freezer and enjoy them whenever you need a cool and creamy delight.
