Fruity Popsicles

 


Makes: around 7 popsicles                    

Popsicles are a great snack when it comes to summer. They are refreshing, and delicious! And these ones are also healthy, well depending on your juice. So if it is hot, and you need a snack, make a popsicle!

Supplies:

Popsicle sticks

Fruit of your choice (I am going with strawberries)

Juice of your choice (I am going with tangerine juice)

Milk

Bananas

A popsicle mold

A blender

Directions:

1. Pour milk (one cup per 7 people) into your blender. 

2. Add bananas (one per 7 people) into the blender

3. And add some juice into the blender (I suggest 2/3 of a cup of juice per 7 people) and blend

Note: While this is blending, or some other time, you should chop your fruit, if you did not buy pre-cut fruit

4. Once that is fully blended, pour the mixture into your popsicle mold


5. Put it in the freezer for around 26ish minutes

6. After 26 minutes or so, drop the chunks of fruit in


Note: You may need to push the fruit down with a spoon or a popsicle stick


6. Drop chunks of fruit into the mold as well (I suggest 5 as a max per popsicle. However, I only used 3)

7. Place a popsicle stick into each section

8. Let freeze until they are completely frozen

9. Once they are frozen, you can eat them!
