Lemon Popsicles

2 cups coconut milk
4 sprigs mint
½ cup fresh orange juice
¼ cup fresh lemon or grapefruit juice
1 Tbsp citrus zest
2-3 Tbsp honey
½ tsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp fresh ginger juice (optional)

Combine coconut milk with mint, orange/lemon juice, honey, salt, ginger juice and whisk thoroughly.
Pour into popsicle molds and freeze until fully set (approx. 6 hours).
Let thaw 1-2 minutes at room temperature to unmold easily.

Pectin
~1 lb citrus quarters (peels & juice removed), chopped
¼ cup lemon juice
2 cups water

Combine ingredients in a nonreactive pot and let stand for 1 hour.
Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Turn down heat to medium and let simmer for 15 minutes.
Strain mixture through cheesecloth.
Return mixture to pot and reduce by ½.
To test, place ¼ cup rubbing alcohol in a small bowl and place 1 Tbsp cooled pectin on top. Let stand 1 minute. Pectin should form a blob and be easily removed from the bowl.
If this is not the case, return pectin to pot and strain mixture by half, then test again.
Store pectin in the freezer for up to 6 months.
