Striped frozen treats like this... well I can't help myself and if you've picked up the latest issue of Martha Stewart Living, then you've probably seen these. So if you're like me and love a refreshing icy treat that looks this good, then well... we're alike. I just knew that when I saw these little striped delights I had to make them soon... like tomorrow soon. They are kind of a lengthy process with the freezing of each layer and what not, but they are well worth it and the flavor combinations are almost limitless and I have to say, right now I think the pink lemonade part is my favorite. I loved it's sourness.

I don't really need to give you a recipe for this since it's pretty much just juices, puree's, and yogurt and you can add what ever you like.
For the vanilla-yogurt mix
1 cup greek or regular plain yogurt.
2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract.
Mix together.
For the raspberry puree'
1 pint raspberries
1 tbs sugar
1 tbs white wine or liqueur (optional)
Add the raspberries, sugar and wine/liqueur to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Pour through a sieve to remove the seeds.
To make the stripes, pour a layer in each mould and let set at least 1 hour and repeat on the second layer and add your popsicle stick in each it should stay up-right. Repeat the layering and freeze overnight. I did mine off and on in one day and let freeze overnight. It might not take you this long, but my freezer seems to like to take forever for things to freeze throughly.
Happy weekend!

So Healthy! What a "chilling" idea for the summer :) I like that you get different fruity flavors in each bite!

These are almost too pretty to lick! Beautiful colours. And I bet they taste amazing with Greek yogurt.
Ummmmm could these be any cuter? LOVE THEM! (And want to eat one right now, despite it being only about 15 degrees outside).
I love the colour combo's. It looks so pretty. It is currently winter in the southern hemisphere. It doesn't get as cold down here, but it gets cold enough for me to appreciate any hints of summer. Thank you

These pops are absolutely beautiful. I totally need to try this! I love the layered look. Weird question, but I think we have the same popsicle molds; do you have any idea how far you should fill them when freezing? I've been over and undershooting the mark!
