This is like those orange-cream pops you remember, but all grown up. A generous dose of clementine zest gives the mixture a pleasant, bitter edge, while yogurt lends tang.

Instructions Checklist

  • Meanwhile, zest enough of the tangerines to yield 1 tablespoon zest. Add zest to cream mixture in blender. Peel all the tangerines, discard peels, and add the fruit to the blender, along with the yogurt.

  • Blend until very smooth. (If you have a good-quality, high-powered blender, 1 minute should be enough. For other blenders, allow 2 minutes.) Divide mixture among 12 3-ounce pop molds. Insert sticks and freeze overnight.

Prep note

If you don't have molds, pour the mixture into 3-ounce paper cups, cover them with heavy-duty foil (or a double layer of foil), then insert wooden sticks and freeze. Tear off the paper and foil, then slurp away.
