I decided to try to make 40 red, white and blue ice pops for July 4th. I used this recipe as a base, using just strawberries and cherries for the red layer. Then the recipe as follows for the lemon/white layer. Then I tried a batch of just blueberries for the blue layer, but it was not looking very blue, so I added 3 or 4 cherries to try to enrich/deepen the color, and it came out red. So I added a tiny bit of blue food dye, and presto! Purple! Haha, so I have red, white and purple pops, but you get the idea. I think the recipe proportions are good, the each section is very intensly flavored and sweetened. If I make again, i will probably and some water to each section just to tone down the flavor a bit. But over all, it’s a good recipe.
