popsicles!

yes, i know that popsicles are for summer. but i have been thinking about them lately and i wanted to make some creative pops today. they are in the freezer now. i emptied two ice cube trays and got all the likely (and some unlikely) contenders out of my fridge and pantry.

my hopefully yummy pop flavors are:

• starbucks frappucino (the kind you buy already bottled) with creme-de-menthe and chocolate syrup
• starbucks frappucino (the kind you buy already bottled) with just chocolate syrup
• mandarin orange segments in the "light syrup" they come in
• mandarin orange segments in the "light syrup" they come in and triple sec
  
• raspberry jam mixed in with plain yogurt and honey/agave nectar, layered with plain yogurt
• margarita mix with salt and tequila (so... margarita pops!)
• cinnamon tea with powdered cinnamon sprinkled
• raspberry jam with lemonade poured over it
• blackberry jam with lemonade poured over it
• banana, chocolate syrup, and soymilk blended together
  

i will update with the positive or negative results of these combos. i am very excited and optimistic.

since i don't have popsicle trays (or proper popsicle sticks), i poked holdes in wax paper to put toothpicks through and layed it on the ice trays. then when i put the toothpicks in, they didn't fall to the side.

POPSICLES!
freeze, baby, freeze.
