Method

  1. Put strawberries and honey into a bowl and whizz with a stick blender to make a coarse puree. In a separate bowl, whizz the mango with the juice to a smoother puree.
  2. Fill 6 ice lolly moulds, or glasses, with the purees, making sure to alternate the two different flavours so you create a ripple effect.
  3. Stick in the lolly sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
