Horse Ice lollies
With this current crazy heat rise, we have been thinking of ways to help keep our horses cooler; I have been experimenting with Ice lollies/" ice Creams."
First up, I tried Banana based "Ice Cream."
Horse Ice 'cream.'
Banana & oats.
Ingredients (to make approx. one container) :
- 1.5 bananas
- Handful of oats
- 2 cups of Water
- A mixture of berries (we used Blackberries.)
Blend the Banana, oats, and Water in a blender; add more Water if it needs more liquid. Pour this into your container/Tupper wear. Add the berries.
Leave in the freezer for about 12 hours.
Fussy ponies might not be a fan, as Rebel wouldn't eat this one; I don't think he's a fan of bananas. Peter, however, very much enjoyed it!
Horse Ice 'Lollies"
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of very strong Peppermint tea
- Apples
- Carrots
- 1/2 cup of Apple juice
- 2 cups of Water
Start by making your peppermint tea. Cut up your apples, watermelon & carrots. Place these in your containers Mix the apple juice, Water, and tea, then pour this into a mixing jug & pour into your containers. Freeze for 12 hours or until fully frozen. Rebel enjoyed this one! And is his firm favourite.
Enjoy & stay cool in this heat!
