Rose Raspberry Popsicle

 

I got a ZOKU popsicle maker for Christmas, and now that it is summer and steaming hot outside, I'm bustin' it out for some yummy frozen treats. 

The easiest recipe so far has been pouring Simply Fresh Orange Juice with whole berries mashed or thrown into the popsicle slots. Basically, no mixing or thinking required. Just freezing and eating!

However, I have experimented with blending strawberries, honey and greek yogurt, which is really good as well. But, my favorite concoction so far is mixing Rosewater with fresh mashed up raspberries and some greek yogurt. It tastes like it should be full of calories, but it's nice knowing that the yummy treat is good for you.

Reserve a few raspberries (10) to slightly mash and fold into popsicle mixture later. Take all ingredients - yogurt, raspberries, rosewater and milk - and blend together in a blender. Fold in reserved mashed raspberries.
