Refreshing watermelon buddies up with tangy lime and hibiscus in these simple Watermelon, Hibiscus and Lime Lollies from chef and head of Ottolenghi Test Kitchen Milli Taylor. “These are a wonderful thirst quencher on hot afternoons. The recipe makes around 6 lollies, depending on the size of your moulds, and it’s simple to scale up so you can always have a few on standby in the freezer.” Allow at least an extra 4 hours for freezing.
