Celebrating Independence Day:
Cool Patriotic Picnic Treats

These are simply wonderful. And the kids can’t get enough of them. While you are making them … and eating them … discuss the significance of the colors red, white, and blue as they pertain to Independence Day.

Picnic Pops

Ingredients:

2 cups apple juice
4 cups strawberries, fresh or frozen
4 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen

Tools: Blender
2 popsicle molds
12 paper cups
12 popsicle sticks

Directions:

1. Whirl together 1 cup apple juice with strawberries in blender.

2. Pour liquid into molds or cups, filling half full. Insert sticks and freeze for two hours.

3. Whirl together remaining apple juice with blueberries in blender.

4. Add liquid to molds or cups that contain the strawberry mixture, filling to the top.

5. Freeze for two more hours.

6. When firm, remove from freezer, remove from molds or peel off cups, and serve.

Variations: Here’s a really fun variation to try. Alternate the red and blue layers 4 times instead of 2 times. Add a white layer using lemonade or coconut juice. Practical Tip: To keep sticks upright before the liquid freezes, cover each paper cup with foil and insert stick through the hole cut in the top.
