When I was 15 I had an incredible opportunity to perform (dance) in China during their International Children’s Festival. I was able to meet kids from all over the world, and I distinctly remember having a lot of talks with some sweet Australian girls about what they have/don’t have/names for treats. Oh, and making them say “Fosters, Australian for beer” over and over again! haha! I’m not sure why it’s stuck with me, but every time I think of a popsicle, I think “icy pole”, I suppose it’s quite literal!
Many of us think of popsicles, especially for kids, as frozen sugar. Luckily, it doesn’t have to be that way! DeeBee’s Organics has come out with a perfect solution to cool you down this summer! Introducing the Teapop! “The idea for a ‘TeaPop’ was born when Dionne was with her two sons deciding what to have for a treat. Her youngest son, who does not eat sugar but loves different teas and herbal teas, said “let’s make tea” while her eldest son, who felt like a frozen treat, said “let’s make teasicles”.” (DeeBee’s) How CUTE is that?! Teapops are the first certified Non-GMO, organic, kosher, vegan, tea-based treats that are gluten, dairy, nut, and soy free. They come in a 5 different flavours: Berries ‘N’ Cherries, Southern Iced Tea, Tropical Mango, Minty Mint and Toasted Coconut. Something for everyone!
I made sure to take Lyric with me to the store to help pick our flavours! We tried both the Southern Iced Tea and the Berries ‘N’ Cherries. They were perfect for the hot day. All flavours are under 50 calories and are BIG! While Lyric wasn’t that fond of the Southern Iced Tea flavour, I loved it! He did devour the Berries ‘N’ Cherries though, and has since finished off the box! I’m looking forward to trying some of their other flavours as well. Actually… how would YOU like to try a box of Teapops, for FREE? It’s as easy as a 1, 2, 3!
