Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 2 cups mixed fresh fruit (such as berries, kiwi, and mango)

Sweetener

  • 1/4 cup honey or agave nectar

Additional

  • 1/4 cup water
  • Popsicle molds
  • Popsicle sticks


Instructions

  1. Prepare Fruit: Wash and chop the fruit into small pieces to make blending easier and ensure a smooth texture.
  2. Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the chopped fruit, honey or agave nectar, and water. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Fill Molds: Pour the blended fruit mixture into popsicle molds evenly. Insert popsicle sticks into each mold to prepare for freezing.

Notes

  • You can use any seasonal fruit you prefer or have on hand.
  • For a creamier texture, consider adding yogurt or coconut milk to the blend.
  • Adjust sweetness to your liking by modifying the amount of honey or agave nectar.
  • Ensure the mold is completely frozen before attempting to remove the popsicles to avoid breakage.
  • Great for kids’ snacks, summer parties, and a healthy alternative to store-bought frozen treats.
