SIMPLE PEPPER SYRUP

* 1 can each pineappl/banana/orange and mango/guava/passion fruit juice (or your two favorite combo juices with some citrus in them) Mix fruit juices according to label directions with water.

Blend pepper syrup with lemon and lime juice.

Stir together and refrigerate.

Simple pepper syrup: Seed and wash peppers (especially the manzana as the seeds are black), puree in blender adding water and sugar at end. Bring to a boil and simmer until it is reduced by half, aprox 2 hours. Let it cool to room temperature and strain thru many layers of cheese cloth. Makes about 3-4 cups of very hot and sweet simple syrup that can be used for a lot of things i.e. sweetener, topping, ice cubes (50-50 with water), glaze, frosting...

It is just a guess but I would think if you mixed the syrup with your favorite fresh squeezed fruit juice and a little lemon or lime to cut the sweetness you would have a pretty good hot popsicle. To really disintegrate brain cells you might try just adding flavored extract (sans sugar) to the syrup and freeze.
