You can't deny it. Popsicles make people happy. That first sweet taste on your tongue may make you feel like a kid again. It may be just the thing to remind you about the importance of play and creativity. It may be the reminder to relax and savor the moment. It may even cool you off after a nice walk in the summer sun. But one thing is for sure, it will bring a smile to your face.
So as you journey toward happy and walk on sunshine, take a moment to savor the sweetness of life with a yummy popsicle. Just don't forget to share, because as you know, everything is better together.
We partnered with Chef Kimberly Houston to create five tasty, healthy and easy-to-make popsicle recipes to enjoy on a hot summer day, or any day you’re looking for a taste of sunshine after a rejuvenating walk or afternoon of fun. These recipes use simple ingredients you can feel good about, one even including a hearty serving of spinach, and we know you’ll be smiling big when you take that first taste!
Included are recipes for:
Strawberry Lemonade Pops
Watermelon Pops
Pineapple Lime Pops
Strawberry Mango Pops
Fudge Pops
In addition to the easy-to-find ingredients, you’ll need something in which to create your popsicle, like these popsicle molds HERE, or you can use small baking tins, paper or plastic cups, ice cube trays, small yogurt containers, or a loaf pan. (If using a loaf pan, line the pan with plastic wrap or parchment paper and insert sticks when your popsicle flavor is partially frozen. Once fully frozen, slice into individual-sized portions.) You’ll also need popsicle sticks, which can be found in packages at your local craft or dollar store.
