I LOVE summer treats – fresh berries or watermelon, milkshakes and ice cream. My all time favourite would be popsicles! There are so many delicious flavours to have (personally I like the white ones the best). However, just recently I bought my own popsicle molds – this means that I get to have lots of fun mixing popsicles for myself!
