Summer is an Ice Lolly



How fast can you put a smile on a child's face when handing them an ice lolly :) Pretty darn fast I tell you :)
An instant pick me up and also a great way to cool anyone down from kiddies to adults. And the best part is that you can make your own in your favorite flavor and you can make them preservative free and as organic as you want them to be - it all depends on the quality of your ingredients. All you need is some juice and some yoghurt! Simple hey!

INGREDIENTS
Fruit Juice of your Juice (the more organic the better)
Yoghurt of your choice (also the more organic the better)

METHOD
Take your favorite juice flavour (as fresh and as organic as possible) and pour into a 1/3 or half of the lolly moulds. Place in the freezer and when almost set put in your ice lolly sticks. When the juice is properly set pour in your yoghurt till almost fill (i use organic vanilla yoghurt) and place back in the freezer until hard and set.

Take out and enjoy :)
And its healthy too :)

  6. We made some of these a couple of weeks ago, but used two different flavours (berry & apple i think) and made them in stripes. They looked so cute.

    Have never tried with yoghurt, definately going to give it a bash.
