It’s already April somehow and it’s starting to heat up here in Central Texas. One of my favorite things to do in the summertime is make different kinds of popsicles. When Mathew and I got married we were gifted a Zoku Popsicle Maker and it’s been one of our most used items in the house once Spring and Summer hit! It’s super fast and there are endless possibilities for making popsicles. Sometimes I love making fruit purees for popsicles, other times I get chocolate pudding for pudding pops, but the majority of the time I grab a can of coconut milk and random things from my pantry and make creamsicles because they’re my absolute favorite.

I’m really excited to share with you my Sweet and Sour Skittles® Creamsicles recipe today because it’s super easy and involves Mathew’s favorite candies- Original and Sour Skittles®. They’re sweet, tart, and refreshing on a nice Spring day or even a hot Summer day. These particular Sweet and Sour Skittles® Creamsicles are inspired by the new Marvel Captain America: Civil War movie where Captain America is battling Iron Man. I thought it would be fun to make a red, white, and blue creamsicle with Original Skittles® for Captain America and a red and yellow popsicle with Sour Skittles® for Iron Man.

What made me choose Original Skittles® for Captain America and a red and Sour Skittles® for Iron Man? The Original Skittles® totally scream Americana to me, so it’s only right that they’d be team Captain America. As for the Sour Skittles®, we all know Iron Man has a bit of a sour side. That’s why Sour Skittles® are the perfect match for team Iron Man! I’ll admit, I’m totally an Iron Man kind of gal, but these Sweet and Sour Skittles® creamsicles have me conflicted!

Captain America: Civil War is on our “to see” list and I can’t wait! I’ve heard great reviews from other bloggers that went to the screening of it and it is looking like it will be a blockbuster hit!
