I had several fresh fruit on hand and during lunch break from work juiced them up for organic homemade freezer pops using Zipzicles.
Even the colors are just beautiful.
Even the colors are just beautiful.
Pineapple: skinned, quartered and juiced. No sugar added, the perfectly ripe fruit was plenty sweet.
Strawberries: washed, cut and juiced. I was going to add a dash of Agave but last minuted decided not to.
Citrus Burst: 2 oranges, 1 lemon, 1 lime - all peeled and juiced. No sugar added because the orange juice had a perfect amount.
Punch: all of the above leftover juices combined into one. The pineapple juice was about a cup while the others only a bit was left but enough to create the punch flavor.
Hazelnut Coffee: I brewed a large cup of Hazelnut coffee in my Kuereg and added Hazelnut creamer, let it come up to room temp and filled the Zipzicle bags.
Don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win a 12 pack of these!
Why I like these self sealing freezer pop bags:
- Just the perfect size for a treat
- Fill line shows you where to stop
- Re-sealing allows you to close for travel - backseat treat, after game cool off, morning grab along when filled with yogurt and granola
- Not just for frozen treats but ideal for optimizing herbs when fresh in season to save in the freezer
- Either washable (from/for family) or disposable - your choice
- 12 per package
- Easy to fill even without a funnel (although one is recommended)
- Zipzicles are 100% virgin plastic and contain no plastizers. Made of FDA approved Food Grade LDPE (low density plyethylene) and LLDPE (linear low density plyethylene) that is 3 mm thick. It is BPA-free and are recyclable under #4 category.
I can see using these for the following:
- Herbs from season for use later in the year
- Pesto
- Chicken, Veggie, Meat base to use in sauces
- Adult Drinks - think of this as the next evolution from jello shots
- On the go breakfast - yogurt with granola - no utensils needed
What would you use these for?
I've been looking everywhere for these! We have a baby girl + one on the way. Wanted to start "fresh" with our family (no processed store-bought foods)
