Later, Frank’s son George gave it the brand name “Popsicle,” in honor of his “pop,” or father. ‘These days, there are mare than 30 different Popsicle flavors. Over two billion Popsicle products are manufactured and sold every year. imagine, if Frank hadn't left his drink on the porch, we might never have tasted one!
