Premium Indian River citrus fruits are the best tasting fruits you can buy. You and your guests will love the sweet and delicious taste of Indian River oranges, grapefruit and specialty fruits like Honeybells. You can use a mixed fruit basket of Indian River fruit to create exotic cocktails and iced drinks, or to make all natural and low calorie desserts and treats for kids. In fact, your kids can help you create frozen treats that can be served for birthday parties, summer BBQs, or just hot afternoons when everyone wants something cool and refreshing to eat. Any of these tasty treats can be made easily using only natural Indian River citrus fruits:

All natural popsicles – Fresh orange juice is perfect for making frozen popsicles without all the sugar that commercial frozen treats have. These natural treats have all the vitamins and minerals you’d find in a glass of juice but when served frozen your kids will clamor for them on hot afternoons or during long hot evenings when it’s too warm to sleep. Simply squeeze some Indian River oranges and pour the juice into plastic popsicle molds that you can find any home store or discount store and freeze. The plastic molds are reusable so for just the cost of the molds and the fruit you can enjoy tasty and nutritious frozen treats all summer. Try mixing fresh fruit juices to make popsicles with other great tastes.

Punch – Punch is usually associated with formal parties but even the most informal backyard together is better with punch. There are dozens of ways to make a delicious punch with just the ingredients that you have in the house, so you can turn any gathering into a festive event. Simply mix fresh fruit juice, like fresh Indian River grapefruit juice, with ginger ale or club soda and you have a punch. Slice up some colorful Indian River citrus fruits for color and garnish, or freeze some of the juice into ice cubes that will release more flavor into the punch as they melt.

Using affordable Indian River citrus fruit is a fun and healthy way to add some zest to your summer gatherings. Since working with this sweet fruit is easy to do it will leave you extra time to enjoy the party yourself.
