Rainbow Popsicles Recipe

For this quick recipe, you only need Sprite or other clear lemon lime flavored soda, Rainbow Berry Airheads Extremes Sour Candy & popsicle molds. I recently bought these Ozera popsicle molds that have a drip guard (oh yeah baby!)

With a special little twist to the candy, you can make the perfect rainbow ice pops. I did some trial and error and this was definitely the best way to do it. Check it out!

Then pinch the ends together so they stick.

Repeat 4 times, pressing each layer into a pop mold, so that it looks like this:
