Tis the season for amazing frozen treats! I recently got a new popsicle mold and I LOVE it!! It was pretty inexpensive, easy to use, and the popsicles come right out of the molds with no problem 🙂 Here’s the one I have (affiliate link):
And I already have a couple other popsicle recipes in mind to share with you guys… so that’s coming this summer. Also, my new ice cream maker came today (woot!!), so I wouldn’t be surprised if an ice cream recipe or two appear on the blog over the next couple months.
Little background here… remember when I talked about how the kids are hanging out at summer camp a few days a week? Well one of those days is usually “water day” at camp where they have sprinklers, water balloons, etc. Unfortunately this year, Kennedy’s days lined up where she would either have to choose water day or a field trip day… and she LOVES their field trips, so I told her we could have our own water day at home. I bought a little water table, a new sprinkler and slip n slide for both of them… and we tested it out over this past weekend. They had SUCH a blast!
Since it’s been so hot here, my hubby decided that we all needed a popsicle, so he came back with these raspberry lemonade treats that I made. Mr Picky (2 year old Colton) turned his nose up at them, then changed his mind 10 minutes later… but Kennedy loved them! She’s a lemonade girl at heart, so it wasn’t too hard to convince her 🙂
If you’d like, feel free to add a little vodka to these (not too much, or they won’t really freeze), to make this an adult treat 😉
You can also use it as a base recipe and add whatever fruit you love! I’ve made the same thing with blueberries and have already taken a few requests for some strawberry lemonade ones.
As we head into the dog-days of summer, I hope you guys give this one a try!

Lovely. I would prefer making fresh soda lemonade instead of using sprite. Loved this recipe 🙂

These popsicles just say summer, and would go a long ways to cool us down on those too warm days. They’re so pretty too.

Those look sooooo refreshing and raspberry-lemon is such a great flavor combo! Our raspberries bushes are bursting with berries now, this will be a great way to put them to use!
