Best Layering Tip
Use thick smoothie mixtures, not thin juice-like blends. Thicker layers freeze better and create cleaner red, white, and blue stripes.
Best Popsicle Mold Tip
Silicone popsicle molds are easiest for removing frozen popsicles. If using plastic molds, run the outside under warm water for a few seconds before pulling them out.
