Citrus Spritz Pops Recipes

APEROL SPRITZ

Steps:

• Add the Aperol to a glass filled with ice and stir. Top with the sparkling wine and soda water.
• Squeeze in the orange wedge and stir gently, then serve. Serve with a straw to minimize dilution!

CITRUS SPRITZ POPS

Steps:

• In a large measuring cup, whisk together the Aperol, Prosecco, club soda, and orange juice until well combined.
• Place 2 blood orange slices into each mold. Pour the Aperol mixture evenly into each and insert the popsicle sticks. Freeze until firm, about 6 hours or overnight. Serve the popsicles in a glass of chilled Prosecco if desired.

CITRUS BERRY SPRITZ

Steps:

• Combine the vermouth with the club soda in a pitcher. Pour into 4 glasses. Divide the berries and ice cubes among the glasses. Give the mint leaves a rub and add one to each glass. Serve chilled.

CITRUS ICE POPS

Steps:

• Place the grapefruit juice, orange juice, water, lemon juice, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and chill the mixture in the freezer until very cold, about 10 minutes.
• Mix the vanilla yogurt with the strawberries, and chill.
• Spoon a little of the cold juice mixture into 6 ice pop molds, using about 1 1/2 tablespoon of mixture for each mold. Place the molds into the freezer until the juice freezes, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the cold strawberry yogurt into each ice pop, and top each pop with the remaining citrus juice mixture. Freeze until fully hardened, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

PUCKERIN' PICKLE POPS

Steps:

• Place 5 oz of juice (mixed with a small amount of sugar if desired) into six popsicle molds or you can use small dixie cups, or an ice cube tray with popsicle sticks.
• Freeze until firm. Enjoy!
