BLUEBERRY POPS

Steps:

• In a blender, puree blueberries with water, sugar, and fresh lemon juice. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing with a rubber spatula to release as much liquid as possible; discard solids. Add water if needed to yield 3 cups.
• Divide among ten 2 1/2 ounce molds; insert wooden sticks, and freeze until solid, about 3 hours (and up to 1 week). To remove, dip bottom of molds in warm water for 2 to 3 seconds.

BLUEBERRY CREAM POPSICLES

Steps:

• In a medium pot, toss the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the mixture becomes juicy, 4 to 5 minutes. (Add 2 to 4 minutes of cook time if you're using frozen, unthawed berries.
• Transfer to the bowl of a food processor or blender and cool for 10 minutes. Purée the mixture until relatively smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the sweetened condensed milk and blend until combined, 20 to 30 seconds. Scrape the bowl well.
• Add the heavy cream and process until the mixture is well combined and thickens slightly, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the sour cream and vanilla and blend until fully incorporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. If necessary, transfer the mixture to a large container with a spout, such as a 4-cup/1-liter liquid measuring cup. Divide the mixture between the popsicle molds, filling each just under the rim of the cavity of the mold. Gently press a popsicle stick into the center of each cavity and freeze until firm, at least 8 hours.
• To unmold, gently run warm water over the base of the molds. They should easily release. Keep frozen until ready to serve.

BLUEBERRY, THYME AND SWEET CREAM ICE POPS

Steps:

• Take the berries out of the freezer to thaw. Bring the milk, 1/4 cup water, sugar, thyme and a pinch of salt to a simmer in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Let cool completely at room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
• Put 2 cups of the blueberries and the lemon juice in a blender. Strain the cooled milk mixture into the blender, pressing on it with a wooden spoon to extract as much flavor from the thyme as possible; discard the thyme. Puree the blueberry mixture until completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender partway through if needed. Transfer the mixture to a large liquid measuring cup with a pouring spout. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup blueberries.
• Pour the mixture into the ice-pop molds, leaving at least 1/4 inch of space at the top (the mixture will expand). Insert the sticks. Freeze until solid, 5 hours to overnight. Unmold, and enjoy immediately.
