Come Y Bebe Tropical Fruit Punch

"In Latin America, popsicles are known as paletas. There are two types of paletas. One type is fruit based and the other is milk based. The milk based one starts with a combination of coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk. These are Paletas de Coco. Fruit can be added to make numerous varieties. Some common flavors include passionfruit, mango and papaya. Then there are juice based paletas. These come from a popular fruit salad called Come y Bebe, which translates as Eat & Drink. The fruit is chopped very small and served in a lot of juice, so that the fruit salad is drinkable. This is especially popular in Ecuador & Colombia. Someone had the ingenious idea to freeze it and juice based paletas were born."
