Limbellimber Puerto Rican Icee Recipes

Originating in Puerto Rico and coming in many flavors, limber is named after the pilot Charles A. Lindbergh, who landed on the island in 1928. According to El Nuevo Día, Puerto Rico's newspaper of record, he was greeted with this delicious frozen juice, which came to be called limber, it's said, after how many on the island pronounced the pilot's name. In New York, this simple dessert may be one of the best things about summers in the Bronx. Serve it in cups - squeeze the cups, take your first lick, then turn the dessert upside-down - or as ice cubes. The cubes are especially nice in coconut-flavored rum after a long day. It's the much-needed cool-off you're yearning for.

I got a recipe just like this on dels.com and I loved it but when I looked at the recipe it called for del's dry mix but I have any. But I did have powder lemonade. I used that and it came out perfect! So I said to myself, If the powdered lemonade works than why not try it with other powdered drinks. So I tried it and it was delicious!

What is a limber? It's kind of like a popsicle, but is usually served in a small plastic cup and made with natural fruit juices. It's very rich in flavor and texture, since often the pulp of the fruit is not removed from the mix. Tip: You'll know a mango is ripe if it's tender to the touch and you get the strong scent of mango when you smell it. Servings are a approximate. From Modern Mami.
