"text": "National Cherry Popsicle Day celebrates the sweet, brightly colored cherry-flavored frozen treat on August 26. It also offers a chance to enjoy the story behind the popsicle’s accidental invention. In 1905, 11-year-old Frank Epperson mixed powdered soda with water and left it outside overnight with the stirring stick still in the cup. The mixture froze around the stick, and Epperson called his creation an “Epsicle.” He introduced the treat publicly in 1922, and the name later became Popsicle, based on what his children called it, according to the National Confectioners Association.\nThe exact origin of National Cherry Popsicle Day is not documented, but the earliest located print mention is from Edmonton, Alberta, in August 2000, according to CooksInfo. Today, celebrate the classic cherry flavor—or choose another variety if cherry isn’t your favorite!",
