Tea Popsicles Cool Off Like a Big Kid

One of the things I used to love about summertime was the homemade popsicles that my mom made from koolaide in the little tupperware things. Once they were put in the freezer it was hard to wait until they were frozen. I never much liked the commercial variety of popsicles buthomemade ones have always been one of my favorite things.
Mmmmm...Tea Popsicles!
As I have gotten older I like different flavors. Since I am an ice junkie anyway a popsicle is just added pleasure. You can make them out of any tea or coffee, just like the ones you make for the kids. In fact, you can make tea popsicles with two or three different teas. Just freeze one layer, then another, and so on. Some great teas to try this with are the white tea and fruit blends. They are light, refreshing, and sweet.
Just make sweet tea and let it come to room temperature. Pour into popsicles molds and place in the freezer until frozen solid. You may want to make the tea a little sweeter than normal.
Hey, don’t let the kids have all the fun!

I had forgotten all about the homemade popsicles. That brings back some memories.
I don’t have any of the tupperware, but I might have to find it again just so I can have the koolaid, I mean try the coffee version.
Lol, Mike! hey maybe you could get peach flavored koolaide and mix it with coffee…..
Why haven’t I thought of this?? Sweet tea is my favorite….and in the form of a popsicle…surely it does not get any better! Thanks for sharing.
I don’t know, Angela…tea slurpees, tea popsicles…yum.
