Method
step 1
Put the apricots in a blender and process until smooth. Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer, measuring out 500ml of purée. Add the honey, sugar, 100ml water and the cardamom, and mix together until smooth and evenly combined.
step 2
Divide the mixture between the 10 cavities of your ice lolly mould (see below for where to buy). Put the mould in the freezer and chill for 30-45 mins or until just starting to freeze. Insert the lolly sticks and leave to freeze for at least 4 hrs or until frozen solid.
step 3
To remove the lollies, dip the mould in hot water for a few seconds, then carefully remove the lollies, dipping each into the chopped pistachios to serve.
