WELL IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN. TIME FOR AIR CONDITIONING, SPF 44, AND POPSICLES!!!! IT’S SUMMER TIME. I THOUGHT I WOULD KICK OFF SUMMER O9 WITH A LITTLE SOMETHING I LIKE TO CALL NATURE POPS. THESE ARE HEALTHY POPSICLES WITH NO PRESERVATIVES AND NO ADDED SUGAR. I CREATE THEM MYSELF ON MY “JACK LALANNE POWER JUICER”. IF YOU DON’T HAVE THIS KIND OF JUICER YOU CAN USE YOUR OWN FRUIT JUICE THAT IS STORE BOUGHT BUT YOU WON’T GET THE NO PRESERVATIVES EFFECT OF THE POPSICLES IF YOU DO IT THAT WAY. OR YOU CAN USE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN JUICE WITH JUST REMEMBER TO BE SAFE IN THE KITCHEN!!

- YOU WILL NEED TO GET A POPSICLE MOLDING TRAY. THEY LOOK LIKE THIS:

POPSICLE TIME!!

AFTER YOU HAVE YOUR MOLDING TRAY. YOU CAN START JUICING ANY COMBINATION OF FRUITS YOU WOULD LIKE HERE IS A RECIPE I CALL :

STRAWBERRY SUNRISE: A HANDFULL OF STRAWBERRIES, A WHOLE ORANGE PEELED, AND A COUPLE OF TANGERINES PEELED

- JUICE IN YOUR JUICER MAKE SURE YOU TAKE THE TOPS OF THE STRAWBERRIES OFF, AND PEEL YOUR CITRUS

-AFTER YOU FILL A CUP UP WITH THE JUICE, EMPTY CONTENTS INTO YOUR MOLDING TRAY THAN COVER WITH CAPS. LET IT FREEZE FOR A COUPLE HOURS

AFTERWARD YOU SHOULD HAVE HEALTY NATURAL POPSICLES TO ENJOY THAT WON’T LEAVE YOUR MOUTH COATED IN STICKY SUGAR!!!

NO SUGAR JUST GREAT TASTE!!!

THE FUN THING ABOUT MAKING POSICLES IS YOU CAN EXPERIMENT WITH AS MANY FRUITS AS YOU CAN FIND. CREATE YOUR OWN COMBINATIONS AND YOU WILL SEE HOW MUCH FUN IT IS. JUST LOOK AT WHAT’S OUT THERE TO CHOOSE FROM!!!
