    These are very easy to make and yummy! I used the Triple Berry blend from Sam's and a Banana... very good.. would rather use that fruit with this rather than drinking up the little seeds in a smoothie! Can't wait to see which fruit to use next! - 5/1/09

    I love these for the summer months. I especially love mixing strawberries and blueberries together. I also added a splash of skim milk and 1/4 cup low fat yogurt for an extra creamy popcicle. I used granulated splenda instead of sugar.
    I've also tried it with frozen tropical fruits...wonderful. - 6/21/10

    very easy to make, if you have a blender and dixie cups, and something to use for popsicle sticks (I didn't have any so I substituted by breaking shish-kabob stickes in half and using both halves) Strawberries make a tasty pop. - 7/5/08

    I used frozen strawberries & peaches and a very ripe banana because that is what I had on hand. It was excellent. With most of the fruit being frozen, I did have to add a bit more water to be able to blend it, but it worked great and tasted great. - 4/16/08

    Very refreshing! Instead of making individual "pops," I doubled the recipe, using watermelon & strawberries and 1/2 oz of Kirschwasser, then put it in an ice cream maker to make a sorbet. Kirschwasser added a couple of calories but kept it from freezing too solid. Just don't give it to the kids! - 6/3/11

    This is easy and great. Could almost fool yourself that you're eating ice cream. Hint I did this with white peaches because I have a tree and had them. IMHO white peaches don't have much flavor beyond sweet so we're going to add things like cocoa, vanilla or? get a variety of flavors from 1 fruit - 6/22/10

    How is it that there are 0 grams of sugars in this recipe when there are 2 cups of fruit and 1 tablespoon of sugar? - 2/27/09

    The recipe seems to be quick and easy. I plan to try it. It is usually hot in Okinawa and this would be a cool treat. - 2/27/09
