Fruity Fresh

All that heat can really dry you out. These cool recipes are sure to quench that thirst.

Peach Tea Jamboree

You’ll Need:

  • 1 medium sized peach
  • Sweet tea – homemade or store-bought

 

Wash & slice the peach, then place 1-3 slices in each popsicle mold. Pour tea over the peaches, then freeze until hardened. Now get out your fan, Scarlett O’Hara.

 

Tickled Pink Lemonade

You’ll Need:

  • Pink lemonade mix
  • Water

 

Make pink lemonade. Now freeze it in ice pop molds. Pat yourself on the back, you’re done!

 

Fit & Fruity

You’ll Need:

  • Coconut water
  • Fruit of your choice

 

Slice your fruit, place in the popsicle mold and add coconut water. Ta-da! The perfect way to cool down after a summer run.

 

Sweet Treat

Let’s face it, it’s too dang hot outside for baking. But that doesn’t mean you have to give up dessert.

 

Decadent Fudge Pop

You’ll Need:

  • 1 ½ cups chocolate almond milk
  • ½ cup Nutella

 

Whisk together, pour into a mold, freeze overnight, and boom. You’re in chocolate-hazelnut heaven. Added bonus: you can lick the Nutella spoon during preparation.

 Gin There, Done That

  • ½ cup cucumber slices

 

That cucumber you bought to put on your eyes? Put them in this instead – besides, we know much better ways to de-puff. Mix up the gin, tonic & lime juice, then pour over the cucumber slices in your popsicle mold, and freeze.

Brut & Fruit

You’ll Need:

  • 1 bottle champagne or rosé wine
  • 8-10 oz. mixed berries
