Ingredients
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 1 cup mango, peeled and diced
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (optional for a creamy texture)
- 1/2 cup orange juice (or any fruit juice of your choice)
- 2-3 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
- Popsicle molds and sticks
Preparation
1. Blend the Fruits: In a blender, puree the strawberries with 1-2 tbsp of orange juice until smooth. Pour the mixture into a bowl and rinse the blender. Repeat the process separately for the mango and blueberries, each with 1-2 tbsp of orange juice.
2. Sweeten if Desired: If you prefer sweeter popsicles, mix a small amount of honey or maple syrup into each fruit puree.
3. Layer the Purees: Carefully spoon layers of each fruit puree into the popsicle molds. For a marbled effect, gently swirl the layers together with a skewer or spoon. If using Greek yogurt, you can create additional layers of yogurt between the fruit layers.
4. Insert Sticks and Freeze: Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.
5. Unmold and Enjoy: To remove the popsicles from the molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds. Enjoy your homemade fruit popsicles immediately!
