You can buy Popsicle holders in the summertime at most stores that carry toys or kitchenware. Dream up an endless variety of frozen treats to delight sun-soaked children and adults. The holders we used required ½ cup of liquid each, so to make 6 fruitsicles 3 cups of liquid are needed. Freeze for at least 2 hours. Run warm water on the outside of the holder until the pop pulls out easily. You can also use ice-cube trays to make iced fruit cubes for children to suck.
Creamy Orange-Vanilla Pops
2 cups orange juice
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla
Blend all ingredients in a blender, pour in holders leaving ½ “ at the top of the holder and freeze.
Banana Coconut Pops
3 ripe bananas (1 ½ cups mashed)
1 ½ cup coconut milk
¼ cup maple syrup
Blend all ingredients in a blender, pour in holders leaving ½ “ at the top of the holder and freeze.
Here's two more simple ideas:
Juicesicles
3 cups juice (raspberry, grape, cherry, pomegranate, tropical)
Melonsicles
3-4 cups of melon chunks (cantaloupe or honeydew)
¼ cup water
Blend all ingredients in a blender, pour in holders, and freeze.
