I know “popsicle” is a brand name, but it’s like Kleenex, you know? I try to train myself to use the term “ice pop” but it feels so unnatural. It’s just not right!
So, on topic: Root Beer Float Popsicles. I am still madly in love with my Zoku Quick Pop Maker
Although these are great for the Zoku, you can use regular popsicle molds too. They taste like a root beer float on a stick!
Ingredients
- 1/2 c. water
- 1/4 c. root beer syrup
- 1 vanilla pudding cup (I use ZenSoy)
- 1/4 c. milk (I use soymilk)
- 1 1/2 tbsp. granulated sugar
- 1/2 tbsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
- Zoku Instructions: Combine water and syrup in a small bowl and pudding, milk, sugar, and extract in a second small bowl. Make layered pops by alternating syrup and vanilla mixtures (wait until first layer is frozen before adding another) or make creamsicle-like pops by filling mold with syrup, allowing edges to freeze, suctioning remaining syrup from center, and filling with vanilla mixture.
- Popsicle Mold Instructions: Fill each mold halfway with vanilla mixture and freeze until frozen. Fill remainder of mold with syrup mixture and return to freezer until solid. (Note that not all popsicle molds are suitable for making layered pops!
