Your t-shirt clings to your skin. The air is so thick you don’t just breathe the air, you eat it, chew it really. Sweat rolls down your spine, and you crave something sweet and refreshing – like a popsicle.  If you’re 8, then you don’t care what’s in the popsicle. You just know it will taste so good, make your tongue turn a fiery red or orange or purple, and get you nice and sticky to the point you know Mom will let you play in the sprinkler to get clean. But if you’re mom, then you know the popsicles you get from the local grocery aisle are laden with high fructose corn syrup, food colorings, and other unmentionables. The organic kind will cost you an arm and a leg, and quite frankly, you’re still not 100% sure what’s in them. What’s a mom to do? Easy!

  • 1.5 to 2 cups coconut water
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons
  • chia seeds
  • juice from 1/2 a lemon

Instructions
