Calippo-style icy poles | Thermomix

This was my favourite icy-pole growing up. My mum introduced me to the lovely tangy lemony goodness at a young age...and I've always had a craving for them in summer!

I found these silicon cases at Kmart and thought I'd try recreating the recipe at home.

INGREDIENTS 2 lemons, flesh only. Remove with pith. 100g raw sugar 200g ice cubes

PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS Puree lemon and sugar together, speed 6 for 5 seconds Add ice and blend for 30 seconds on speed 9 Pour into silicon cases and freeze Tips:  peel the lemon skin off with a potato peeler and keep in the freezer for later use substitute lemon for orange, and reduce sugar MAKES 6
