Sabores frescos para el 4 de julio

When temperatures climb, fresh fruit often sounds just as good as classic summer desserts. These two recipes put a festive spin on seasonal favorites, combining bright flavors, vibrant colors, and simple ingredients for treats that are just as fun to make as they are to share.

4th of July Popsicles

INGREDIENTES

• 3 Tbsp granulated sugar

DIRECTION

1. Blend the strawberries and 1 tablespoon of sugar until a smooth puree forms. Divide the puree evenly among 10 popsicle molds. Put the molds into the freezer and let it freeze for 3 hours. It should take up about 1/3 of the mold.
2. After the strawberries mix is frozen, whisk together the coconut milk and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Take the popsicle molds out of the freezer and divide the coconut milk among the popsicle molds. Freeze for another 3 hours. The coconut milk should fill about 1/3 of the mold.
3. Puree the blueberries and the last tablespoon of sugar. Take the molds out of the freezer and divide the puree evenly among the molds. Freeze for 3 more hours or overnight and enjoy!
