Chunky Peach Popsicles
Skip a trip to the store. Nothing says summer like homemade peach ice pops! Make sure to reserve a portion of the peaches as you puree the mixture so the pops will be packed with icy cold, chunky bits of fruit. For a grown-up twist, try adding 1-2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh mint, lemon verbena or basil.
