Summer is in full swing. The weather is warmer, the days are longer, and everyone seems more relaxed in general. It’s a relief to take a break from the carpool grind, endless homework, and strict bedtimes that belong to the school year. I love the downtime with my kids without taking inventory of what needs to be done that day.
Along with the summer vibe comes the frozen fun! This is the time of year I break out the Popsicle Molds and start experimenting with different flavor combinations. Popsicles are ridiculously easy to make and one of my favorite summer treats. I use everything from fresh fruit, fresh herbs, juices, and yogurt to make various icy treats. Depending on what you use in your popsicle, they can be a lighter, healthier version of a summer snack.
Oh, and for the adults, you can make a boozy version with alcohol. Mojito Popsicle, anyone? It’s 5 o’clock somewhere….
Enjoy!
