How to make root beer popsicles:

If you are using a mold that doesn’t include the stick, then you will need to use popsicle sticks. My problem with these is the sticks tend to float as it freezes.

To solve this problem, just let the sticks soak in boiling water for about 15 minutes before you use them. Problem solved!

I try to get the ice cream when it is on sale and this treat gets even more frugal.

By shopping when things are on sale I save money on groceries and it really helps our budget.  If you have a crazy schedule, it can even be accomplished during busy week with quick and easy recipes like this one.
