I can’t remember the last time I had a popsicle, but after browsing through these recipes and then stepping outside into the sweltering heat, I knew I had to get my hands on some homemade treats. So I dashed over to Target and grabbed a pair of popsicle molds for $3.99 (each mold makes four popsicles).

Having never made popsicles before, I decided to start off with a pretty simple recipe involving 1 cup OJ, 2 cups fresh or frozen mangoes, and 2 tablespoons of honey.

Blend and pour into the molds and freeze until solid (at least 4 hours or overnight).

The result: a chilled tangy treat, tamed by the richness of the honey. It’s a perfectly divine escape from the summer temps and will be sure to melt you away!
