Definition
-
An ice lolly refers to a frozen treat that is usually made by freezing a flavored liquid or fruit juice in a mold. Also known as a popsicle or ice pop in some regions, an ice lolly provides a refreshing and delectable experience during hot weather.
Typically consisting of a plastic or wooden stick inserted into a long, narrow mold, the lolly is filled with a liquid mixture that is then frozen until solid. The liquid used can vary, ranging from fruit juices like orange or lemon to yogurt-based mixtures or artificial flavors. Some ice lollies may also contain small fruit chunks or pieces to enhance the texture and flavor.
The process of making an ice lolly is relatively simple, involving pouring the desired liquid mixture into the mold and placing it in a freezer until completely frozen. Once frozen, the lolly is consumed by holding onto the stick and slowly licking or biting into the frozen treat.
Ice lollies are readily available both commercially and homemade. They are commonly sold by street vendors, grocery stores, and ice cream trucks. They are enjoyed by people of all ages, especially children, for their refreshing and cooling effect during summertime or as a delightful dessert option throughout the year.

Etymology of ICE LOLLY
The term "Ice Lolly" is a British English term for a frozen treat on a stick, commonly known as a popsicle in North America. The word "lolly" is a shortened form of "lollipop", which originally referred to a piece of hard candy attached to a stick. The word "lollipop" is believed to have originated in the late 18th century and is thought to be an onomatopoeic word imitating the sound made when licking or sucking a sweet treat. The addition of "ice" to "lolly" denotes the frozen nature of the treat. The term "Ice Lolly" is primarily used in the United Kingdom, while "popsicle" is more widely recognized in other English-speaking countries.
