Directions:
We make these in disposable plastic cocktail cups.

Set out however many cups you want to make. Using whatever fruit is available, fill the cups about 3/4 full.

Pour juice over the fruit about halfway up. Fill up with something fizzy, such as 7-Up, Sprite, Ginger Ale, Sparkling flavored waters. Do not overfill, leave space at the top.

Place in freezer and freeze solid.

It will take about 45 minutes to thaw for eating. They're good frozen, if you want to stab at them, but a little bit of thawing will allow for some ice crystals to remain, but still be easy to eat.

Personal Notes:
Annette Kruth used to keep these on hand for potlucks and dinners. They're wonderful and delicious. Since they're in the plastic cups, no need to worry about cleanup.

I don't like adding bananas to this because I don't think that bananas survive freezing well. If that doesn't bother you, add them!
