Summer Popsicles

Claire and I made some yummy Popsicles on Saturday afternoon. My friend Angela inspired us after she served the little ones Popsicles while we were over for a play date. I thought we should make some for Claire to have at home. 
 
Getting organized to make Popsicles
We made three different flavours. 

Very Berry Popsicle

1/4 cup blueberries
1/4 cup blackberries
1/4 cup strawberries
 1/4 cup of orange juice

puree in the blender until smooth

Tropical Popsicle

1/2 banana
1/4 cup pineapple
1/4 orange juice

puree in the blender until smooth

Melon Popsicle

1/4 cup watermelon
1 kiwi
1/4 cup strawberries
1/4 cup orange juice

puree in the blender until smooth

 
Our tropical mix

You can play around with the portions depending on how many Popsicle molds you have. We did have some leftovers after each flavour but Claire was happy to drink it along the way.  She was the official taste tester and each of them of passed with flying colours!
