Instructions
- Clean the kitchen area and wash hands with soap and water.
- Gently rub fresh produce under cold running water.
- Break pretzel rods in half if using long pretzel rods.
- In a large bowl, gently stir together the yogurt and berries.
- Spoon into 4-ounce ice-pop molds or 3-ounce paper cups.
- Cover molds or cups with foil.
- Use a sharp knife (adults should do this) to cut a small hole in the foil.
- Insert the cut side of the pretzel rod.
- Freeze until firm (approximately 4 hours.)
- Remove foil and mold or cup before serving.

Notes
- Use any assortment of berries.
- If you don’t have ice-pop molds or paper cups, you can use an ice cube tray.
- Instead of breaking the pretzel rods in half, break them into thirds.
- Leave a small space between the yogurt and foil when filling the molds or spray the foil with cooking spray. This will help prevent the foil from freezing to the yogurt.
- Choose yogurt based on preference. The final product may vary in texture, consistency, and flavor depending on the yogurt choice.
