I don’t know about you, but when it’s hot and sticky outside, my mind goes straight to popsicles. If I’m craving something sweet and refreshing, but not too heavy, homemade fresh fruit ice pops are my go-to snack.
With homemade popsicles, you never have to worry about any preservatives or suspicious ingredients. I like to add a little bit of maple syrup to sweeten things up, but you can make yours as sweet as you’d like.
Once you have the technique down, you’ll be able to make popsicles out of just about anything. This handy popsicle holder does the trick. Here are three of my favorite icy combinations to try out this summer!
