Summer is here and it is hot!  I haven’t felt like cooking and all I want to eat are things that are cold.  That means sandwiches and salads for lunch and ice cream or popsicles after dinner.   I can’t keep running out to the local ice cream place (it costs too much!) so I decided I needed to make a cool treat myself.

Cool off with easy Cherry Limeade Popsicles

Initially I was going to make ice cream but I didn’t have any cream in the refrigerator and I didn’t feel like running out.  After taking stock of the ingredients in my refrigerator and freezer I came up with the idea for Cherry Limeade Popsicles.   I had frozen cherries in the freezer and fresh limes in the refrigerator.

I just did a very simple popsicle, nothing fancy.  I combined fresh squeezed lime juice and simple syrup in bowl.   Then I chopped up a bunch of the frozen cherries and put them in the popsicle molds.  I poured the lime juice over top of the popsicle mold and froze them for several hours.

Cherries, limes, and lemon lime soda make delicious Cherry Limade Popsicles

The popsicles were really tasty!  They were sweet and tart with big chunks of cherries in them.   They looked nice too with the light pink popsicle studded with big dark red cherries.  Since they were so simple to make I’ll be making them again soon!

Cherry Limeade Popsicles are the perfect sweet and tart treat to help refresh you in the summer
