My kids are known for eating all the orange popsicles out of the box and are then stuck with the not so desirable flavors. I totally agree with them that someone should come up with an all orange box of popsicles since that truly is the best flavor in the box.
So the other day my son pulls out a box of orange Jello and I had an idea. We made the Jello with only 1 cup of water and then substituted the remaining amount of water with apple juice. It was the only juice on hand that I thought had the mildest flavor and wouldn't clash too much with the orange. A few plastic cups and a few sticks and we stuck them in the freezer and waited to enjoy after dinner.
Except...
They took FOREVER to freeze! A whole day in fact. The kids were super disappointed and I felt terrible but the next day we tried them out. Not quite what I expected as some of them had actual bits of Jello on the bottom but they weren't bad for a crazy idea. And the best thing was that they didn't melt at all. Perfect for a summer day!
