Tomato popsicles recipe, flavoured with cardamom. Homemade popsicles are best treat for summer, prepared at home without any artificial colors or flavours.
I love tomato juice a lot. Especially the juice my mom makes as it has ample sugar amount to satisfy my sweet tooth as well as the magic ingredient cardamom. Both tomato and cardamom together makes a deadly combo that I love a lot.
Out of my laziness and to avoid sugar intake, I rarely make tomato juice. I wanted to try it out in popsicle form. When I was preparing this popsicle, I tasted few drops and it instantly took me back to my childhood.
I added lemon juice along with tomato as the popsicles should not be bland after freezing. I also added extra sugar for popsicles than I add sugar usually for juices.
