Pop Art

I had fun drizzling my raspberry-sherry vinegar coulis down and around the sides of my colorful new molds to create pop art for the taste buds.

The recipe comes mostly from Béa at La Tartine Gourmande but her version of the coulis is different than mine. She gets credit, however, for the idea of peach FroYo popsicles with raspberry coulis. Go here for her recipe.

The texture of these is more like creamsicles than popsicles, with a little lingering tang from the yogurt. The coulis is nearly purple and the peach froyo is a soft melon shade, beautiful all by itself and when complemented by the bright colors of my popsicle molds, they were a feast for the eyes.

And, wonder of wonders, the sun appeared before noon. I don't want to complain that this has been a remarkably gloomy summer, but it has been a remarkably gloomy summer. So, sunshine before noon was a good reason to pop open one of these and indulge in a summer treat.
