Is there anything else better on a hot day? Ok, maybe a cold beer or a margarita but let’s talk family friendly treats! I have become obsessed with making popsicles for my girls using fresh and healthy ingredients…they think it is a special treat, and I feel good that they are eating all the colors of the rainbow in the day 🙂
Here are some of my creations that I think are worth sharing…and yes I have made a few that are not worth sharing!
* Strawberry Mango
6-8 fresh strawberries
1 mango
*Tropical Pops
1 ½ cups fresh pineapple chunks
1 banana
1 ½ cups unsweetened coconut milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
*Strawberry Banana
6-8 fresh strawberries
1 banana
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
¼ cup pineapple juice
1 tsp vanilla
*Berry Popsicles
8-10 fresh strawberries
1 6oz container fresh blueberries
1 6oz container fresh raspberries
1 6oz container fresh blackberries
You may want to strain this mixture after blending to remove most of the seeds.
*Pina Colada
2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup fresh pineapple
1 tsp vanilla
Blend all ingredients for each recipe, using a blender and add honey for sweetening to taste. Pour into popsicles molds and freeze for at least 4 hours before serving.
