Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you’ll need to whip up a batch of delightful fruit popsicles:

2 cups of your favorite fresh fruits (strawberries, mangoes, blueberries, kiwis, watermelon, etc.)

1/2 cup fruit juice (orange juice, apple juice, or any juice of your choice)

2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

Popsicle molds and sticks

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Fruit Popsicles

1. Prepare the Fruit:

Wash the fruits thoroughly and chop them into small, bite-sized pieces. You can use a single type of fruit or mix multiple fruits for a fun and colorful variety. If using berries, you can leave them whole or slice them in half.

2. Blend the Base:

In a blender, combine the fruit juice with honey or agave syrup if you like your popsicles sweeter. Blend until smooth. You can also add a few pieces of fruit to the blender for a thicker, fruitier base.

3. Fill the Popsicle Molds:

Pour a little of the juice mixture into each popsicle mold, just enough to cover the bottom. Then, add a layer of fruit pieces. Continue layering the juice and fruit until the molds are full, leaving a little space at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.

4. Insert the Sticks:

Place the popsicle sticks into the molds. Make sure they are centered and positioned correctly. Some molds come with built-in slots for sticks; if yours doesn’t, insert the sticks into the semi-frozen mixture after an hour of freezing to keep them upright.

5. Freeze Until Solid:

Place the filled molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid. Overnight is best to ensure they are thoroughly frozen.
