These are "the best" tasting home-made popsicles. These popsicles don't freeze hard like the store brand popsicles, but they freeze up enough to be eaten with out melting too fast, and boy are they delicious. It's just like biting into a fresh strawberry. I make these popsicles every year when it's berry pickin' time.


Strawberry Popsicles

3 cups fresh, sliced, strawberries
1 cup granulated sugar
2 cups water

Place sliced strawberries in a blender.

Add the sugar and water.

Place lid on blender, and process until all ingredients are smooth.

Pour strawberry mixture into (3-ounce) popsicle molds. (You may need to use a spoon to remove some of the foam that accumulates to the top of the popsicles. And after removing the foam, fill remaining popsicle molds with a bit more of the strawberry juice.)

Place popsicles in the freezer, until they've firmed up completely. (I place mine over night in the freezer.)

Yields: 14 popsicles.
