Natural and homemade ice Popsicles are my new obsession these days . They are easy to make and require no special equipment except an Ice Pops mold . With no use of preservatives, added sugars and colouring agent ; they make a perfect dessert for your kids too.
Here is an interesting recipe for unique Ice Popsicles where I have used blueberries in two ways – as whole berries and as a smoothie . They just don’t look spectacular, they taste divine as well.
