Easy Popsicle Treats

100% fruit juice
Popsicle sticks or craft sticks
Container to hold popsicles such as popsicle holders purchased from the store or DixieTM cups.

Add fruit juice to containers. Place sticks into mixture and freeze until solid. To serve, run container under cold water until the popsicle loosens and falls out. Enjoy!


If you have young children, you may try 1/2 water and 1/2 juice to reduce the sugar content.

Popsicle containers go on sale in midsummer and can be found at most department stores like Wal-Mart or Target. I found a wonderful set on sale at Williams-Sonoma that is made of metal and sturdier than most molds. Dixie cups or small drinking cups can be used, but you have to insert the stick after the popsicle is partially frozen. If you use Dixie cups, simply peel off the paper cup to serve.
