On a hot summer day, a cold fruit popsicle is a great way to stay cool make a variety of popsicles. I like to puree whole fruit and add lemon or lime for some acidity. This helps reduce an overly icy texture. Also adding fruit juice, like orange, grape or apple helps make pops that will melt slower. A combination of puree and juice mixed well helps with flavor and texture. You can add small or thinly sliced pieces of fruit like watermelon, strawberry, mango, pineapple, or kiwi.

You can purchase a variety of molds to make your popsicles. You can also use a paper cup and popsicle sticks. If using paper cups place pops in freezer, then in an hour add popsicle sticks.
