A great collection of popsicle recipes for all kinds of tastes. Most are very simple to make. I loved the Peaches 'n' Cream, Root Beer Float, and Strawberry Lemonade. There are some very unique recipes, as well, such as Pumpkin Pie and a whole collection of pops made from coffee and tea.

All of the recipes are made with natural ingredients, but don't make the mistake that these recipes are healthy. There is plenty of sugar, honey, and other sweeteners. But I look forward to making more of these!
