Description
Fresh, sweet-tart Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles made with strawberries, lemon juice, honey or agave, and water. These easy freezer pops make a bright vegan or paleo-friendly summer snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 1/2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries, thawed if frozen
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, from about 2 lemons
- 2 to 3 tablespoons honey or agave, adjusted to taste
- 3/4 cup water, for blending
Instructions
- Rinse fresh strawberries, remove the tops, and thaw frozen strawberries if using.
- Add strawberries, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons honey or agave, and water to a blender.
- Blend on high until the mixture turns smooth and pourable.
- Taste the puree, then add more lemon juice or sweetener if desired.
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.
- Cover the molds with lids and insert popsicle sticks.
- Freeze for 3 to 4 hours, or until the popsicles feel completely solid.
- Run the outside of the molds under cool water for a few seconds, then gently wiggle each stick to release and serve.
Notes
- Use agave for vegan popsicles or honey for paleo-style popsicles.
- If you do not have popsicle molds, pour the mixture into small paper cups, cover with foil, poke sticks through the center, and freeze until solid.
- For easier unmolding, run cool water over the outside of the mold for a few seconds before pulling gently.
- Store frozen popsicles in a freezer-safe bag or airtight container for 1 to 2 weeks.
- Taste the mixture before freezing because frozen pops taste slightly less sweet than the blended puree.
