I don’t know about you, but as much as I love fall, I’m going to miss those beautiful summer days. But I found the perfect solution to celebrate summer all year long. Three words: Strawberry Champagne Popsicles.
There is no better combination than strawberries and champagne. And when you put it in the form of a popsicle, it’s the perfect treat! Can it get any better? Yes, yes it can, because these treats are SO easy to make. If strawberries aren’t your favorite, raspberries or peaches would be just as great.
Mom-Friendly Strawberry Champagne Popsicles
Really, it's an "insert-fruit-here" and Champagne popsicle, and it's highly addicting. You've been warned.
