Pro Tips and Storage
- Once the popsicles are frozen solid, remove them from the molds by running warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds. This will help loosen the popsicles and make them easier to remove.
- If you want to take them out of the mold, you can store them in a ziplock bag or airtight container wrapped separately in wrapping paper so they won't stick together and keep them in the freezer for later.
