Instructions
- In a medium-size bowl, add the IPA, simple syrup and orange marmalade. Using a whisk, mix until the marmalade dissolves into the other liquids. Add the chopped apricots, ginger and sea salt, covering and placing into the refrigerator for at least an hour (or overnight) to marinate the fruit and fuse the flavors together.
- Option 1: Strain and reserve the fruit from the liquid. Fill and freeze the first bottom inch of each mold. Divide the fruit and top each mold with the reserved liquid. Place sticks and freeze fully.
- Option 2: Purée the mixture to a thick or thin consistency, depending on desired final texture (smooth or speckled with identifiable fruit pieces). Pour into molds, top each with a stick and freeze.
