Star Patriotic Pops

Here's such a fun patriotic treat to enjoy this summer! Super simple, and your kids will love helping you make these.

Makes 4- prep- 5 minutes total time 4 hours 5 min

INGREDIENTS / MATERIALS:

• fla-vor-ice pops: 3 red and 2 blue
• lollipop sticks
• large pear*
• tiny star cookie cutter
• ice pop mold

DIRECTIONS:

1. Wash and slice your pears into thin pieces.
2. Use your star cookie cutter to cut out star shaped pears.
3. Thaw your ice pops and fill 1/4 way full with the red ice pop, add in a few stars, place a lollipop stick in the center, and freeze for 1 hour.
4. Now fill another 1/4 with the blue ice pop, add in a few more stars (you might need to center your lollipop stick at this point), and freeze for another hours.
5. Repeat steps 3-4 until full and frozen.
6. Place the plastic part of your mold under running hot water for 10-15 seconds, wiggle on your stick, and they will slide right out.

*(apples can be used in place of pears as can a red and blue sports drink for juice)
