Cool off with homemade popsicles

Published by Anne-Marie at 4:24 am under Cookbooks,Desserts & Snacks

It’s a great time of year to make homemade popsicles. I was inspired by a recipe from Pops!: Icy Treats for Everyone by Krystina Castella that was in last week’s Denver Post:

Grape Pops

pops! Makes eight 6-ounce pops.

Ingredients:

  1. 1 1/2   cups seedless red grapes, halved
  2. 4 1/2   cups white grape juice

Directions:

  1. Divide the grape halves among the pop molds.
  2. Pour in the grape juice and insert the sticks. Freeze for at least 6 hours.
  3. Remove from the freezer; let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes before removing the pops from the molds.

There are such cool ones out there like the Tovolo Green Shooting Star Pop Molds, the Tovolo Blue Rocket Pop Molds, and the Tovolo Yellow Groovy Pop Molds. They’re only $7.99 each (and eligible for FREE Super Saver Shipping on orders over $25 at Amazon).

Healthy, refreshing, and fun – what else could you want? Have a blast with some homemade popsicles!

    Perfect timing, I’ve been looking for some cool popsicle molds since I found some “adult-type” popsicle recipes in the latest issue of Body + Soul magazine, thank you!
