Nothing says summer like a molded, frozen treat. For maximum enjoyment, sit on a stoop while you lick.
Sometimes summertime heat can really beat down my productivity and patience.
But then I remember that cold, blustery December will be here before we know it.
It’s better to find almost any kind of icy cold treat to love.
Then just hold your stick, take a refreshing lick and bask in the sun from above.
Mango Citrus Popsicles
Flesh from 1 mango
Juice from 1 orange
Juice from 1 grapefruit
3 Tablespoons of honey
My magic bullet blender has seen a lot of action this summer! This recipe is approximate, really any combination of fruit and juice will make a refreshing summer popsicle.
Put all ingredients in a blender. Fill popsicle molds and freeze. Find Tovolo Rocket Molds here.

Mango and citrus? That sounds like an amazing combination. By the way, I love your little girl’s hair color—I’m a redhead, too, and I hope my future kids inherit it!

Thank you for reminding us to enjoy life and remember these days when we are freezing and miserable in 2 feet of snow! These popsicles look delicious and refreshing…!

I just picked up some Tovolo ice cream pop molds last week and I’m in love with them. Absolutely the best way to make a pop! Who wouldn’t eat their fruit if it was in popsicle form?

TOO ADORABLE!! btw, the other day my HUSBAND grabbed a popsicle straight from the freezer to his mouth where it got STUCK! He was obviously in pain, but I thought it was hilarious. Anyone have any thoughts as to how to AVOID THIS? Would hate for it to happen to a Little One!

We have those same rocket popsicles. Love them. My favorite popsicle creation these days is mixed berries, yogurt and a bit of coconut milk. It is heavenly.
