Ice Cream for horses

Here's what you need:
🐎 A freezer-safe mold (plastic or metal is optimal). Avoid using glass.

🐎 Some types of horse-safe fruits or vegetables. I used apples and carrots.

🐎 Water

🐎 Optional: A string that can be frozen in the mold for hanging the horse popsicle.

Step-by-step instructions:

 
  • Gather all the items needed for the horse popsicle, as listed above.

  • Cut the chosen fruits/vegetables into appropriately sized pieces.

  • Fill your chosen water bowl/container with water, leaving a few centimeters free for the fruits/vegetables and to prevent overflow when it starts to freeze.

  • Place the cut fruits/vegetables into the container, along with the optional string.

  • Put the mold in the freezer and leave it there until it is completely frozen. The freezing time depends on the size of the mold.

  • When the horse popsicle is completely frozen, we recommend letting it warm up slightly before offering it to the horse to prevent the horse’s tongue from sticking to it.

  • Hang it in the paddock/stall or serve it in the feed trough, for example.

We strongly recommend using a freezer-safe container, preferably plastic or metal (avoid glass containers and containers with lids).

Additionally, let the popsicle thaw for a little while before offering it to your horse to prevent the tongue from sticking to the ice.
