There’s nothing better than an old-fashioned popsicle on the 4th of July. Sometimes you just have to go “old school” and make them yourself. This red, white and blue treat is refreshing any day.
Try these refreshing watermelon fruit pops. They only take a few minutes to make. The hard part is waiting for them to freeze. Great for all members of the family. Kids love to help make them (and eat them) too!
Watermelon puree, blueberries, apple, and plum.
Fill molds with watermelon puree mixture and freeze.
Yummy, healthy, and a hit with everyone. Add a splash of vodka into the puree for an adult version. Oh yah!
