Now lets admit this now we all love ice lollies also known as popsicles! My grandma used to inundate me with them when I was a child, they were awesome in the summer on a hot summer day, when the ice cream van was around that was the sound of summer.
I remember the sound well, on our estate the kids would run back to their houses to ask for 50p to buy an ice cream then rush back out again to catch the van, leaving those who’s parents said no very disappointed!
While shopping at Sainsbury’s the other day I notice some ice lolly mould so I thought, hey the weathers getting better lets start summer!
My version of ice lollies are really healthy, instead of using sugary fruit juices I use fruit and yogurt, much like a smoothie I guess but frozen!
