Ingredients
  

Popsicle Base
  • 10 oz Frozen Strawberries Choose organic if possible for best flavor.
  • 10 oz Frozen Pineapple Adds a tropical flair! Fresh is also an option if you feel adventurous.
  • 3 small Cooked Beets, Cubed Enhances color and nutrition; flavor is very subtle.
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Yogurt Opt for unsweetened coconut yogurt or any dairy-free alternative if desired.
  • 1/3 cup Coconut Milk Full-fat for creaminess, or low-fat for a lighter version.
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice Freshly squeezed is best; it really brightens the other flavors.
  • 1 tablespoon Raw Honey (optional) Use this if you like a little extra sweetness. You can substitute with maple syrup.
  • 1 pinch Salt Balances the flavors beautifully.

Method
 

Blending
  1. Start by throwing all the popsicle ingredients into your high-powered blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Chef's Tip: Make sure to pause and scrape down the sides of your blender if any stubborn chunks are sticking!
Molding
  1. Carefully pour the mixture into a silicone popsicle mold.
  2. Insert popsicle sticks into the molds. If they’re not standing up straight, freeze them for about 30 minutes first before inserting the sticks.
Freezing
  1. Pop the molds into the freezer and let them freeze for at least 8 hours, or overnight for the best firmness.
Unmolding
  1. Once set, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds if needed, then gently pull the popsicles out. Enjoy immediately or store in the freezer!
  2. Mistake to Avoid: Avoid leaving them in the molds for too long or they can stick!

Notes

These popsicles can be kept frozen for up to 2 months. Just wrap them in parchment paper or store in an airtight container to prevent freezer burn. Perfect for meal prep; make a batch on Sunday for healthy treats ready for the week.
