Instructions

  1. Remove hard out shells from tamarind pods.
  2. Bring tamarind pods and water to a boil.
  3. While the tamarind is boiling mash them with a potato masher.
  4. Remove from heat, cover, and let steep for about 30 minutes.
  5. Using a colander strain the liquid, discard peels, strings, and seeds, and add sugar.
  6. Pour into 10 3-ounce ice-pop molds.
  7. Transfer molds to the freezer and freeze until slushy, about 30 minutes.
  8. Insert a popsicle stick into each mold and freeze until pops are solid, about 3 hours more.
  9. To release ice pops from molds, run the bottom of the molds briefly under warm water.

Notes

  • If you want agua de tamarindo this is the same recipe - just skip the freezing.
