Since summer is here and money is tight for many another way to save is to make your own popsicles. Please if you have a recipe add it to this thread. Very Happy

I'll add my recipe on the next post.

We used to make OJ pops, the store bought Florida's Natural OJ, the one without pulp, put them in the molds, set them to freeze and enjoy..this way kids will get their popsicle fun, the sugar content is controlled and they get their daily share of Vit C.

Same thing can be made with the Florida's Natural Lemonade and Apple Juice.

If there are no molds, just pour the juice into plastic/paper cups, stick a popsicle stick in them and freeze, peel off the cup when frozen ( if paper cups ), the plastic cups will just pop off, and you can wash and reuse them for the next batch of popsicles.

I combine 2 cups of yogurt-any fruit flavors you like and some sliced fresh fruit-your choice. I then blend and pour into molds. Aubrey loves Strawberry/peach. She gets calcium and fruit without even knowing it. Laughing
