Everything is Better Frozen!

Want to up your "cool mom" factor? Make popsicles for your kids! They're easy, refreshing, and tasty enough that you and the hubs will want to eat them, too. (We won't tell if you do!) Try one -- or all of of them -- before summer is over!

Root Beer on a Stick
Remember those root beer floats you loved as a kid (and, ahem, still love)? Get that same creamy, frosty flavor with this awesome frozen-on-a-stick version. Mix two cups of root beer with a half cup of sweetened condensed milk. For the cream layer you’ll need 1/3 cup whole milk, one tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla. Whisk together and alternate between root beer and cream (let each layer freeze a bit before adding the next) to get those irresistible layers. Yum!
