On a sticky summer afternoon there aren’t many things that are more refreshing than a fruity, ice-cold popsicle. These iconic treats totally embody summertime fun.
In our house we always have apple popsicles ready to go for when our bottomless pit of a daughter wants a little treat. We just pour apple juice into an empty ice tray, cover it with tin foil and make tiny slices that we can slide mini-popsicle sticks from our local craft store into. Quick, easy, cheap and healthy, she even requests these mini-pops for dessert!
But while they are perfectly acceptable to a five year old, mommy needs a little something more to satisfy her craving (ok, a lot more).
I saw an awesome popsicle post over on A Cup of Jo a few weeks ago and I’ve been drooling at the thought of these yummies ever since. While I haven’t had the chance to try them out myself yet, I’ve been collecting mouth-watering popsicle recipes that I need to try. Here are a few:
avocado popsicles via A Cup of Jo
greek yogurt berry popsicles via A Cup of Jo
chocolate cheesecake popsicle via Shine
strawberry coconut popsicle via The Tomkat Studio
These big girl popsicles would actually be great to serve at a summertime party. The Tomkat Studio has some super cute (and free!) printables on their site that you can dress your pops up a with if you’re feeling fancy.
If you have any delicious popsicle recipes, please share! I’m on the hunt for good ones!

Hi! I'm Jen, a freelance writer and girl mom who loves reading the newest children’s books as much as I love a good psychological thriller. I believe fiercely in the power of kindness, empathy, and really good quality chocolate. When I'm not knee-deep in glittery crafts and girl talk, you can probably find me sprawled out on my couch in the middle of a Netflix marathon with dark chocolate smeared on my face. The struggle is real. 
Oh Yum! Where do I get the recipe for the chocolate cheesecake???? when I click on the pic it just takes me to the pic…
Ooops! Sorry about that! I fixed the link.
Let me know how it is if you try it! 🙂
