Icream poppers

1) 1tsp blue 'butterfly pea' flowers in 100ml hot water to make a 'tea'
2) 6g sugar + 0.3g sodium alginate (mix) + pinch of salt (optional) + 55ml of the tea from 1, stit (I used dril + stir stick) or blend, leave to cool and settle
3) Prep calcium chloride bath: 0.5% CaCl2 (e.g. 0.75g in 150ml water)
4) 'Acid syrup' to change the color of some, 6g sugar, maybe 1g total of ascorbic + citric acid (worked with much lower conc too but I like the tang)

Slowly drip droplets of cold (2) mix into (3) bath after swirling to get a circular current going. Little beads/balls form, strain them out after a minute or so (shorter time = thinner skin). Can wash in water or put them in the acid syrup to start changing color.

I served on ice-cream (batch 2 had passion fruit powder stirred in) with honey and frozen raspberry chunks. Extremely tasty, the balls were fun texture plus a hint of sweet tanginess.
