Sugar-Free Lemon Ice Tea Popsicles

These easy keto popsicles are perfect for summer and completely guilt-free! Refreshing and light, virtually zero-carb and zero calorie so you can easily have a few on a hot day!

We're using earl grey tea bags (or you can use an equivalent amount of loose tea), lemon and keto approved sweetener with a few leaves of fresh mint. Instead of earl grey you can use any black tea including decaf. Green tea or herbal tea can be used as well. Enjoy!

Recipe Tips

• Tea: You can use tea bags or loose tea. Black tea, earl grey, herbal tea or even fruit tea are all good option. If using fruit tea, make sure it's unsweetened.
• Sweeteners: You can either use Allulose or any powdered low-carb sweetener like Erythritol or Swerve. If you prefer more sweetness, add a tablespoon or two, or use less if you don't like your popsicles too sweet.
• Citrus: We are using lemon juice but you can use other options such as limes or bergamots.
• Herbs: Mint works best with ice teas although you can try other options such as lemon verbena or thyme.

Step-by-step

1. Brew the tea by pouring 2 cups (480 ml) of hot water over 2 tea bags or an equivalent amount of loose tea. You can use earl grey tea or your favorite black tea. Steep for 3 minutes, and then remove the bags or pour through a sieve if using loose tea. Stir in the sweetener (Allulose or Erythritol) and mix until dissolved. Set aside to cool down to room temperature.

   

2. Add fresh lemon juice.

   

3. You can add a few lemon slices or mint leaves. Thinly slice the lemon and cut each slice in half. Divide the lemon slices and a few fresh mint leaves between 8 popsicle molds (85 ml/ 3 fl oz each). Pour the cooled tea over them. Insert the popsicle sticks. Freeze for about 2 hours or until set.

   

4. Once set, remove from the molds and place in freezer bags. It helps to run some warm water on the outside of the molds to release the popsicles.

   

5. Store in a freezer for up to 6 months.
