15 Healthy & Delicious Popsicles Recipes to try this Summer!
With the school summer holidays kicking off in the UK this week and a period of uncharacteristically warm weather, I’m anticipating a request for an ice lolly or popsicle AT LEAST once a day for the rest of the summer!
Whilst shop bought popsicles are ok as a treat now and again, they can be very expensive, especially if you are buying them singularly, and are often packed full of sugar or artificial sweeteners and additives.
Making your own popsicles is a far cheaper and healthier option. You can customise them depending on your own families tastes and they can be a great way of using fruit and veg that might be nearing it’s best before date!
I’ve decided that I will attempt to arm myself with a freezer full of homemade, heathy and kid-approved popsicles ready to go this summer!
