Dave and I happen to live where it is VERY HOT in the summer (which lasts for about 7 months). Strangely, we also both enjoy doing psychotic and not particularly intelligent things like going running in the middle of the day. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to cool ourselves down after an act of heat related stupidity. One of our favorite ways to do this is by eating a popsicle in the pool.

Here’s an easy homemade popsicle recipe that I enjoy:

Raspberry Buttermilk Popsicles

Ingredients
1 cup fresh raspberries
¾ cup sour cream
¼ cup buttermilk
3 TBSP honey
1 TBSP lemon juice

Instructions
1. Smash raspberries in a bowl with the back of a fork.
2. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir it all up.
3. Pour into popsicle molds.
4. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours
5. Eat!

Notes
1. These are tart popsicles. I really like tart things, so this doesn’t bother me. But, if you want them to be less tart, swap buttermilk for regular milk and double the honey.
2. I got my popsicle molds on amazon.com for about $23 for 6 molds and the tray that holds them.

Enjoy!
