For break time, on a hot day while we are haying, we treat ourselves to icy-cold popsicles.

 

 

 

 

 

We freeze several trays of popsicles in preparation for haying and for treating our grandchildren when they visit.

 

Here is the recipe I use. We have used several flavors, but the favorite color is red.

Popsicles

• 1 (3oz). package of flavored gelatin dissolved in 1 cup of boiling or steaming hot water
• add 1 package of same flavor Kool-Ade
• add 1 cup of sugar
• add water to make the total volume of the mixture to equal 2 quarts

Pour into molds to make popsicles.  I use the Tupperware variety.  Freeze.

(I have used the lemonade flavor Kool-Ade with several colors of gelatin and it works.)

I hope you enjoy these frosty treats.
