When the weather begins to warm up, I start thinking about making some desserts for the family. One of the easiest dessert fix is popsicle. Less effort, more fun. I blend some seasonal fruits and pour them into the popsicle mould. My daughter comes up with some flavors and she loves helping me with making popsicles. My niece loves strawberry popsicles, which she has been asking me to post for a while. So this is for all the kids in my family. Every flavor I have made has been a huge hit among kids and even adults cannot stop with one.

These popsicles are so simple to make and tastes yum. Prep work takes just 10 mins or even lesser than that. Setting time can be overnight (preferably) or 5 – 6 hours.

This time I made popsicle using spring seasonal fruits. Strawberry, Watermelon and Mango. These popsicles tasted so good. My popsicle mould has 6 openings. So I made 3 flavors, 2 moulds of each flavor, so that the kids can enjoy different flavored popsicle whenever they wish. Trust me, these are better than the store bought ones. Simple, tasty and hygienic!
