GIVEAWAY is now CLOSED and winner has been notified. THANKS FOR ENTERING!
It's HOT!
When it's hot outside my kids like to cool off with a popsicle.
Now is the perfect time to share some popsicle tips and recipes with everyone!
I love to make homemade popsicles. There are so many different popsicle molds to choose from now days. Here are two of our favorites :
If you don't have a popsicle mold then DON'T WORRY because all you need is some of those small paper cups and some sticks. Pour your mixture into the cups, freeze and then when it's time to eat just peel the cup away from the frozen treat!!
Now here is my favorite popsicle recipe to use :
12 ounce can of juice concentrate
4 cups water (2 cups plus 2 cups)
1 envelope unflavored gelatin (1/4-oz)
Molds, Sticks, Freezer
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in the microwave or in a sauce pan. Remove from the heat. Stir in the unflavored gelatin. Stir a lot, to dissolve it completely. Pour in the juice concentrate and the remaining 2 cups of water. Mix well. Pour into molds and freeze.

TIP:The Gelatin will prevent the popsicle from dripping.
Here is another great site for popsicle recipes.
And if you are going to be eating alot of popsicles then you will definately need to buy one of these...
The DripStik is AMAZING! I could spend an entire post raving about this product. When we recvd ours (GREEN AND PURPLE!) in the mail we had to try them out asap. I no longer have to worry about the kids getting their clothes messy nor do I have to constantly wipe fingers and chins (Popsicle drips). I LOVE DRIPSTIK and every mom that comes to my house is just amazed at the product as well. You can read more about DripStik products here.
Here is my little princess with one of our DripSticks.

Perfect Timing! We have 2 birthdays this summer, my daughters and my fathers and we always have ice cream cakes from Baskin Robbins! Normally I like to bake my own cakes for birthdays, except in the summer when it is too hot for baking and really the best time of year to eat ice cream so we celebrate the summer birthdays with ice cream cakes! Thank you for offering this terrific giveaway and also for sharing all the tips for making ice pops and also the great recipe!
I SCREAM FOR ICECREAM!
I love ice cream!
I love Baskin Robbins ice cream!
We live 2500 miles round trip from all our family members so make the car trip often. in fact between now and sept will make 3 trips. Son in law surgery, daughter gettin married, son and daughter in law expecting their first child. We still have a 12 and 16 year old plus we just adopted a dog from animal control.
Would be nice with the price of gas to win this so we could take a pit stop and enjoy the sweeets.
Thank you for giving me the chance to win this.
Wow!! We are a family of six so this would definitely cover all of our favorites!

This is my 88 year young Mom's favorite place to "eat out". What a delight for her if we were to win!
OMG!! One thing we have really had to cut back on is going out for ice cream with the economy the way it is. I think $40 would get us through the entire summer :) Yum!

Who doesn't love Baskin Robbins? I remember the flavor called daquiri ice when I was younger and darn if I can find it anywhere, and I've tried. It's still on their website but if I ask in the stores they look at me like I grew a horn!
Baskin Robbins is wonderful in the summer!
I also love those popsicle molds. We've been making natural juice pops and those drip sticks look neat.
