Butterfly-pea (Clitoria ternatea) flower tea might have worked as a natural blue colouring.🤔 You'd just have to skip the lemon juice to avoid turning it purple… (Red cabbage extract would also work colour-wise but wouldn't have been the best option if it imparts some taste to the liquid.)
Butterfly-pea is a great idea! I'll try to use that next time! If you want to do the milk clarification method you will have to acidify the tea so that the milk proteins clump up. But after its been filtered, you could just neutralise the acid with some bicarbonate of soda and then the butterfly-pea extract would stay blue. It would be interesting to try as it should work. My only concern is how much of the bicarbonate of soda you would need, and if it would change the flavour of the popsicle🤔 I might try it one day if I ever buy the Butterfly-pea stuff.
@@jakeslife4152 Yeah, sodium bicarbonate shouldn't have a strong flavour but might become noticeable if a lot of it has to be used. 🤔 Blue spirulina might also be an idea to try but it seems too blue so some yellow or green would have to be added and I don't know how it tastes…
@@jakeslife4152 can you make the crepe from kemono jihen? It apears in the op when akira ( the blue boy ) was taking pictures. And can you make beybread from beyblade as well?
Hey hey, was just doing some research and realized that Qingxin technically is real though it is the name of the tea made from a plant even though said plant may not look like our genshin flower. Qingxin is essentially just oolong tea and after realizing that the effects of qingxin or oolong tea include calming stress/anxiety and improving brain function, it makes a lot of sense. I saw someone also recommend using butterfly pea flower for color and that's an amazing idea seeing as that also can have calming effects
So glad I found your channel! Your voice is so soothing and you provide good step by step directions without sounding condescending. I wish you much success in life.
I'm really glad that you have enjoyed the videos! Its always nice to get some feedback, especially when its positive. I hope you have lots of success too!
This popsicle looks so refreshing! I might just try making some! 😊 Found this channel when this video randomly popped out my feed (how did it know im a chongyun main? haha) but wow! You make such amazing dishes. Hope your channel gains more traction! Keep up the great work!
Please let me know if you do make them! I'd love to hear how they turn out! This video has had an interesting journey on RUclips. First it was mainly subscribers watching, then people directed from my reddit post, then people from RUclips searching for Chongyun, and now in the past week RUclips has started showing it to people on their main RUclips feed. I'm glad you found it and enjoyed the video though! I'll keep making more for you to come back for👍
this is amazing, your calm voice goes perfectly with this kind of stuff (cooking, baking, etc.) I mean I was looking for meme video "my favourite flavor of popsicle is ...." and found your video now I am relaxed and with an amazing recipe thank you for this type of content 💞 bless your work😅
Thank you so much, this was a really nice comment to read! I'm very glad that you like the video as well, there will be many more coming in the future!😊
ur so underrated u deserve more views and subs pls keep making more of these types of vids i rlly like them and keep grinding there are more people out there that will discover ur channel and support u and also I suggest try making a paimon cake that will be very funny 😃
Thank you for the support and for the suggestion! These videos are really fun to make so I will keep going, don't worry about that! I have just returned to university though, so I have a little less time now, but I'm still going to keep making videos when I can!👍
Wow these look absolutely lovely!! Thank you so much for this tutorial! 💙 edit: i am making them as we speak! the milk coagulation strategy worked pretty well, there was a little bit of yellow tint left at the end as i made it out of mint tea in the beginning, but i will make sure to experiment with the proportions next time and see if i can get a clearer solution! i also want to try making it with the plant in the future instead of tea filters :D i'll make sure to update on the taste once they're frozen (had a little leftover too so i made ice cubes as well, they look very funky and blue) edit #2: I tried a little bit and IT TASTES SO!!! MAGICAL!!!! So minty and elderflowery, it's really an amazing combo! The colour turned out so beautiful too, the different layers of ice crystals also look so cool when i hold the popsicle up to sunlight!!
Hey, thank you so much for the super detailed comment! Its really useful for me to read about how your experience making them went, so I can improve my recipes in the future, or add notes to the video description based on your feedback. I'm so glad you liked the recipe though! It took me awhile to get the proportions right, but I think they taste pretty, so its good to hear that you liked them too! Thank you for watching!😊
Yes there are lots of options! You can really use whatever flavour juice/cordial you like, I just chose elderflower as it looks like the Qingxin. But specifically, I would recommend apple, cherry or orange juice/cordial, as they all pair nicely with mint.
i don’t know if you’ll see this but.. do i have to use the lemon if i’m using mint extract, since the lemon is really only utilized to make the solution clear? 🤔🙏
Hi, I wanna make this for a friend as his birthday present but i am unable to get any acual mint leaves, could i possibly use store bought mint tea instead? (apologies for any grammar mistakes English is not my first language)
Yeah they are basically a refreshing block of ice😅 To get the soft texture of normal popsicles you need to add a lot of sugar/syrup, but I didn't want to do this because I wanted them to be a bit healthier and lighter (As Chongyun does eat them all the time, so if they were full of sugar he would be a chunky boi)
You can just omit the elderflower if you don't have them and you will still get some great tasting popsicles😋 Just remember to add some lemon juice and sugar to sweeten the mixture before you freeze it. If you really want an alternative, I would recommend adding some concentrated apple juice to the mixture (Taste it as you go) Also, have you tried looking in the tea section of your supermarket? Sometimes they sell elderflower tea, which you could add at the same time as the mint leaves and just do the recipe as explained in the video (Remembering to add lemon juice and sugar at the end to your taste) I hope this all helps!
ik im late but quick question? can you use coconut milk instead? I cant have normal milk sooooo- also love ur vids. I really enjoy making your recipes. ^^
Hi! Are you lactose intolerant? Most of the milk is filtered away, so you might be able to use normal milk as you won't actually be eating any of it. Maybe you could try a small batch first and see how it goes. Any alternative milk that curdles (Goes lumpy) when lemon juice is added should work for this recipe, but I haven't tried any myself. If you want to try one of them, I would suggest that you take a little bit of milk (E.g. Almond/Oat/Coconut) and add some lemon juice to it. If it goes lumpy it should work in the recipe, so you can try it in a small batch. If that works, scale it up to a full batch and enjoy lots of popsicles!😋 Also, thank you so much! I'm so glad that you are enjoying the videos!😊
@@jakeslife4152 thank you so much for responding I honestly didn't think you would. I am not lactose intolerant I'm highly allergic to milk, though thank you for the suggestion I am so going to try it out and make it for my friends this summer I'm really excited about it. Of course I make some of your recipes for my family and they absolutely love it so thank you. 😁❤ (Though I refuse to tell them where I get these recipes from because I'm fun like that)
@@nek-chan9788 You're welcome! I try to reply to every comment as soon as I can. As you are highly allergic please don't try using normal milk, it might be okay, but I wouldn't want you to get ill! Please let me know how it goes with one of the alternative milks, I'm really interested to know how they turn out. I'm glad your family is enjoying the recipes, there will be lots more to come!😋
@@jakeslife4152 I am highly allergic but not up to the point where I can't be around it or touch it really. But thank you for your concern! And I will be sure to let you know how it goes when I get the ingredients to try it out. I can't wait! 😄❤
I got mine from my supermarket, but that might just be a British thing. You could also try using elderflower tea if you can't find any cordial, or just omit the elderflower entirely and they should still taste quite good.
I can fully understand the concern, but you can't taste the milk in the final popsicle at all! They use this technique in fancy cocktail bars to make clear drinks and they wouldn't use it if it tasted bad. So if you have time, I'd definitely recommend giving it a try! The process is like a little science experiment, and you get some great tasting popsicles at the end😋
They are pretty refreshing and not overly sweet. Exactly the kind of popsicle you would want for a hot summers day! The main flavour you get is the mint, the lemon juice makes it a bit tart (Not overpowering though) and the elderflower cordial adds a nice floral note to it, along with a some subtle sweetness.

Does the final popsicle get any milky flavours from the purification process?
None at all! Its quite surprising how it works, but you can't taste the milk at all
Some of the whey will be in the tea but it doesn't have a strong flavour, alternatively you could use mint essence/extract
So cool (literally)! Chong is one of my fav characters :3 I subscribed

I think butterfly pea would works wonder

can I skip elderflower cordial and replace it with some other substance?

i don’t know if you’ll see this but.. do i have to use the lemon if i’m using mint extract, since the lemon is really only utilized to make the solution clear? 🤔🙏
Hi, I wanna make this for a friend as his birthday present but i am unable to get any acual mint leaves, could i possibly use store bought mint tea instead?

Yes, store bought mint tea will be fine!👍 I hope your friend likes the present, I always love getting handmade gifts😊

WHAT BEEING A CHONGYUN'S MAIN SOUND LIKE :
ME HODLY FU-
scince you used water is it not just a block of ice? like, would biting into it be hard? just asking.
Yeah they are basically a refreshing block of ice😅 To get the soft texture of normal popsicles you need to add a lot of sugar/syrup, but I didn't want to do this because I wanted them to be a bit healthier and lighter (As Chongyun does eat them all the time, so if they were full of sugar he would be a chunky boi)
@@jakeslife4152 LOL true :) okay
yeah no biting into this i guess... just lick
@@kittenmimi5326 lol
Is there anything I can replace the elderflower cordial with?
Question: does the alcohol remains after combining it with the purified mint tea?
The problem there isnt any elderflowers here from where I live, can I use something else to compensate for the elderflowers?
You can just omit the elderflower if you don't have them and you will still get some great tasting popsicles😋 Just remember to add some lemon juice and sugar to sweeten the mixture before you freeze it.

I tried remaking his popsicle without knowing how to do it
*Water in a popsicle mold go brrr*
water + mint extract lmao
I will fightfor Chongyun!!!
His popsicles is just frozen tea. There's no milk. So he most likely no 1s more then 2s
ggwp
it kinda fail but thanks
