Honeydew Kiwi Moscato pops

I've been wanting to make homemade Otter Pops, but could never find any bags. Then coming across an article about the Philippines I discovered a poplar item there is called "Ice Candy Bags". They are basically Otter Pop bags but BIGGER (2 inches wide, 16 inches long).  But, of course you can cut them down to a smaller size.

I did a quick search and found them on ebay! Seller bonposh sells them in quantities of 100 for $9.99 and S/H is $1.99.  I received the package in 2 days and was ready to make me some pops!

THINGS YOU'LL NEED:
-4 kiwis
-3cups honeydew (chopped)
-1/2 Moscato (non-alcoholic 1/2 cup sprite or gnger ale)
-Ice Candy Bags
-Twist ties, string, ribbon

Combine in a blender all the ingredients and blend until smooth. Using a funnel cup pour mixture into bags. Fill them as much as you want. If was able to get 4 pops going up to probably a 14 inch mark. Tie them off and put them in the freezer.

My pops were frozen within 5 hours. I had a BBQ and wanted to try them ASAP.  Best suggestion make them at night and they'll be ready come lunch/dinner time the next day.

TIP- When cutting kiwis, cut off the ends and then take a large spoon around the kiwi skin. Cuts it perfect everytime. (view images)
