Cozy Black Bean Soup Recipe | Jacques Pépin Cooking at Home | KQED

My homemade lemonade ice pops with a playful surprise. So I'm making a little simple syrup for my gummy pops. These are really fun. I found worm gummies, which are Jade's favorite. So I have a half a cup of water already simmering in here, and I'm going to add a half a cup of sugar. The whole idea is you just want to melt the sugar in the water, and that's pretty much what a simple syrup is. And that's going to be the base flavor of the sweetness of the pops. The sugar almost immediately just dissolves in the water because of the heat. Then we add a half a cup of fresh lemon juice, so about four to five lemons, and give it sort of a nice balance. It's like making lemonade. One of Jade's favorite drinks is lemonade, so I figured we'd make some homemade lemonade and add gummies to it. And then we're going to add another half a cup of water, give it enough liquid to create an ice pops out of it, and to cool it down super fast, we're going to add a half a cup of ice. So if you don't have the ice, then you just add another half a cup of water, and then it'll just take longer to cool. So as soon as the ice is melted, it's ready to pour in the molds. All right, so my homemade lemonade is cooled. And of course, if you don't want to make homemade lemonade, you can always buy your favorite. From the store. And you can use any gummy that you want. But I like these and Jade does too. So what we do is we take the gummies and we drop them in the little mold. And there's all different kinds of molds these days, so find the one that works best for you. And we're going to drop three of these gummies and you just work with them and get them in there. You want enough gummy in there that you can see it. And then once you got the gummies in there, you pour carefully the homemade lemonade right into it. Go. All right, last one. These are going to be so fun. So then you put the lid on and then you take the little popsticks and you just stick them in there. And you might have to wiggle your way in there just because there's the gummies in there. So wiggle around it and then stick all the sticks in here. So then we pop these in the freezer until they're frozen. And that's it. We're ready to eat. Remember when you said you liked gummy? Yes, I did. Oh my gosh. Me, me, me. I made a lemonade pop. Oh, yum. And I froze the gummy worms in it. Oh, thank you. So Lily's not the only one with gummy worms. Oh my gosh. That is good. Is it good? I got a gummy worm. What do you think? It's really good. It's amazing.
