This is what my boys and I are making this weekend. Thought we would share….Kids Honey Lemon Sore Throat Lollipops RecipeWhat you’ll need…
Honey: 1 cup, but use as much or as little as you like.
Essential Lemon Oil: 3-4 drops if you are comfortable with that
or pure organic lemon extract 1 teaspoon
Lollipop sticks
Candy thermometer
nonstick cookie mat or hard candy moldHow many lollipops you get will depend on what size you make them.
Have ready ahead of time your nonstick pad and lollipop sticks so that when the mixture is ready to work with, everything else is too.
Using a medium sized pot, place on the stove, add hone, lemon oil and candy thermometer. You want the honey to reach 300 degrees. Once mixture is to temperature take off the heat and work carefully and quickly to spoon out about a teaspoon size bit of honey onto the mat and then place your lollipop stick into the blob. Let honey cool completely before removing.
Wrap them in wax paper with a ribbon, saran wrap, or whatever tickles your fancy.
Then sit back with a good movie, cuddle & enjoy. 🙂
*just a reminder: Do not give honey to children under the age of 1 ! 😉
