How to Make Fruit Popsicles
Equipment
- 6 molds for frozen popsicles
- 6 wooden ice cream sticks (optional--instead use the sticks that come with the molds)
- plastic wrap (optional if you use the sticks that come with the molds)
Ingredients
- 2 fresh ripe peaches, peel removed
- 15 fresh sweet cherries
- 12 ounces Welch's Sparkling White Grape Juice Cocktail (or white grape juice)
Instructions
- Cut peaches into thin, small slices.
- Remove the pits and cut the cherries into thin slices.
- Alternating the fruit, loosely pack it into the molds.
- Fill molds with the sparkling grape juice, stopping about 1/4 inch from the top to leave room for expansion.
- Place a sheet of plastic wrap over the top of the molds and seal tightly by pressing to the sides. Plastic wrap should be taut. Use a sharp paring knife to make a small slit in the middle of the plastic for each mold. Insert a wooden stick in the plastic hole, wedging it between the fruit slices so they are centered and straight.
- Freeze overnight.
