    About this ebook

    Boozy ice lollies you can make at home.

    The sun is out, the mercury is finally hitting 30 degees … what better way to toast the start of summer than with a frozen cocktail – on a stick!

    With the onset of summer, the alcoholic ice-lolly trend is getting BIG. The adult popsicle market is one of the fastest-growing product areas in the ice cream market, with sales up 23% to £40m in the past year, according to Kantar Worldpanel.

    From high-end gourmet ice pops on the festival scene to mass-market popsicles that were a sell-out at Aldi, people’s appetite for frozen booze is growing. Even Fortnum and Mason have produced their own alcoholic ice-lollies for the best people. But why go for shop-bought, when you can easily mix and freeze these drinks at home, and never spill a drop.

    This book provides 60 recipes for popsicles, slushies and ice-creamy frozen drinks, with stylish photography.

      INTRODUTION

      ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA …

      … on one cold night, a boy called Frank Epperson made himself a drink and then forgot to drink it. It was 1905 and he was 11 years old, living in California, and too busy playing to remember to finish the drink he’d mixed himself. Back then, soft drinks were made simply by stirring a flavoured powder into water. Frank abandoned his half-drunk glass with the wooden stick still in it and left it on the porch, only remembering about it the next morning. When he picked it up he discovered that the drink had frozen solid. Somehow Frank managed to ease the ice out of the glass, using the stick as a handle, and that day he became the first person to ever lick an ice lolly.

      Frank carried on making ice lollies for his friends, but more as a hobby or side line than as a job. It wasn’t until he served up a tray of these ice pops at a local fireman’s ball in 1922 and saw the sensation they caused that he thought there could be money to be made in these frozen treats.

      He started off selling ice pops around his neighbourhood, calling them ‘Eppsicles’ – a portmanteau blending of his surname and the word icicle. His kids weren’t fans of this branding; they’d already come up with their own name: Pop’s ’Sicles. Deploying the kind of campaigning that only determined children can manage, they eventually persuaded him to change the name and Epperson set up America’s first popsicle stand at the Neptune Beach amusement park on San Francisco Bay in 1923.

      It didn’t take long for the rest of the country to demand to know where their ice pops were, so Popsicle Corporation concessions opened in amusement parks and beaches across the USA. People loved them. One stand at Coney Island sold 8,000 Popsicles in just one day.

      In June 1924, Frank applied for a patent for his Popsicle process. But, a few months later, and in need of money, he sold his patent to the Joe Lowe Corporation. If Popsicles had been popular when Epperson was making them, under Joe Lowe they were a national craze.

      To keep these lollies affordable, Lowe came up with the two-handled Popsicle, a 5-cents ice pop that two kids could share.

      But it wasn’t all smiles in the ice lolly world. Epperson may have patented his icy invention, but he hadn’t been the only one selling ices on a stick in the 1920s. In 1922 Harry Burt of Youngstown, Ohio, had patented the manufacturing process for chocolate-covered ice cream bars on a stick. He called them Good Humor bars and sold them from a fleet of ice-cream trucks. While in Texas in 1925, the M-B Ise Kream Company launched a range of fruit-flavoured Frozen Suckers on sticks. The advertising campaign called them ‘the greatest treat you ever tasted’ – and from the way they sold, it seems like the public agreed.

      From 1924 to 1929, these three companies – and a few other ice-pop pedallers – tussled with each other through the courts, suing and countersuing over who had the legal right to make and sell ice pops. A wary truce was eventually called, with Good Humor retaining the right to sell ‘ice creams, ice custards, and the like’, while Popsicle held sway over ‘flavoured syrup, water ice, or sherbet frozen on a stick’. M-B Ise Kream’s suppliers, Citrus Products, became co-agents for Popsicle with the Joe Lowe Corporation, and for a while people could buy Popsicle-Frozen Suckers until the name was shortened again, back to Popsicle.

      There were a few more legal skirmishes over the years – especially when Popsicle tested the water
