rocket pop

Red white blue

A rocket pop is a frozen treat on a stick, shaped like a rocket and typically featuring three colors layered vertically—red, white, and blue in the American version.

The flavors are usually cherry, lemon or lime, and blue raspberry.

A summertime staple sold from ice cream trucks and freezer cases: The kids ran out when they heard the ice cream truck, quarters ready for rocket pops.
