A limber is a frozen ice pop that originated in Puerto Rico, made in a range of fruit flavors such as parcha (passionfruit), tamarind, pineapple and coconut, sometimes combined with cream. According to local lore the name comes from the Spanish pronunciation of aviator Charles Lindbergh's surname, after his 1928 visit to Puerto Rico was marked by a frozen juice treat named in his honor. Limbers are frozen and served in small cups, eaten by squeezing the bottom to push the pop out, and remain popular in summer both in Puerto Rico and among Puerto Rican communities in places such as New York, Florida and Massachusetts.
