Strawberry Orange Juice Popsicles Recipe

I’ve been experimenting with making popsicles for me and the boys to enjoy on these hot sunny days. I refuse to add sugar to them, so it’s been challenging coming up with mixes that actually taste good. 🙂 (Trust me, you don’t want the recipe for the plain Greek yogurt popsicles). These were the tastiest I’ve made yet.

Strawberry Orange Juice Popsicles

1. Go to the grocery store and buy yourself some popsicle molds. It’s harder, but not impossible, to make popsicles without them. Wash the molds before you use them.
2. Pour a cup and a half of orange juice in the blender with about 3/4 cups of frozen strawberries. You can play with the balance based on your own taste & judgment. I like a bit less berries than juice so that it remains blend-able and doesn’t just turn straight into a block of ice.
3. Use the ‘ice crush’ setting if your blender has it, or ‘pulse’, to crush up the berries well, but leave chunks that will taste good in the popsicles.
4. Pour your orange/strawberry slush into the popsicle molds and stick the handles in. Wipe & wash any excess off the outside of the molds before you freeze them.
5. Put your popsicles in the freezer. Drink whatever slush you have left. It’s yummy.
6. After the popsicles have frozen well, maybe later that same night, maybe the next day, you can start eating them. I recommend you run some hot water over the outside of the molds to make it easier to get your popsicles out. I’ve broken some of these things trying to get at my food.
7. Eat your popsicle.
