This recipe was featured on Tiki Tiki.  Sweet thanks to all who stopped by to share their thoughts.    

Warmer temperatures scream for Paletas!  A Mexican sweet widely popular for fighting off the summer heat.  Paletas are either cream or water based.  Popular flavors include coco, tamarind, mango, watermelon and arroz con leche.  Craving heat? Sprinkle chile over your mango paletas for a added spicy kick!
