peach basil popsicles

July has been a much hotter place to be than June.  And my deck herb garden is rife with basil.  And the farmers markets are rife with peaches.  So a peach basil popsicle was basically meant to be as far as July is concerned.  True story.  These are not sticky sweet popsicles (although you could adjust to make them sweeter) so Fletcher wasn't a huge fan.  Rowan ate hers right down, though.  So 50% kid approved.  100% adult approved, so that's the good news!  And only 4 ingredients.  Easy.

3 ripe peaches
1 bunch basil (1/4 cup chopped)
1 1/2 cup milk (coconut, almond, or regular)
2 T honey
makes 10 small popsicles

 Peel and chop your peaches.  Chop up your basil while you're at it.  Set aside half a peach.

 Throw all your ingredients into a blender!  I used my blender stick.  It's my favorite kitchen tool, by the way.  I use honey because I like the flavor (and local honey is so so good for you, ok?).  If you prefer you could use sugar or sugar substitute instead.

 After your mixture is blended, chop your set aside half a peach into small chunks and add into the mix.  I like to have the little fruit pieces in my popsicles.  If you prefer a completely blended popsicle, go for it.  Pour the mixture into popsicle molds (or paper cups with sticks if you don't own a set).

Freeze at least 4 hours or overnight.  Run your molds under water briefly, and they should pop right out.

Could it be any easier?  And these taste so summery and light.  I ate one for breakfast, is that wrong?  If it is, then I don't want to be right.
