FRUIT JUICE POPS

Fruit Juice Pops image

I've used this recipe for years as a refreshing treat. My children enjoyed these pops more than any store-bought ones I ever brought home. They taste great with either pineapple or orange juice. Try freezing and serving in cups made from hollowed-out oranges. -Barbara Stewart, Garland, Texas
