Strawberry Ice Pops

4 OR MORE ICE POPS

NICE SWEET, FROZEN TREAT FOR THOS HOT SUMMER DAYS! THESE TASTE LIKE THOSE NON-RAW FRUIT POPS (BUT BETTER!)

Ingredients

  • 1 pint STRAWBERRIES, STEMS REMOVED
  • 1 teaspoon AGAVE

Preparation

BLEND STRAWBERRIES AND AGAVE IN BLENDER. IF YOU HAVE SWEETER STRAWBERRIES, YOU WON’T NEED ANY AGAVE. POUR INTO THOSE ICE POP MOLDS (I BOUGHT MINE AT TARGET). i HATE THAT THE MOLDS ARE PLASTIC, BUT I DON’T SEE MANY OTHER OPTIONS OUT THERE. STRAWBERRIES WERE ON SALE, BUT I BET JUST ABOUT ANY FRUIT WOULD BE GOOD! CAN’T WAIT TO DO THIS WITH PEACHES!

These tasted excellent. LOL I have the same one’s from Target that are plastic and from china “go figure”.... These tasted excellent can’t wait to try another fruit. I wonder if watermelon would work.

I make popsicles for my kids in 1-cup (8 oz) straight-sided canning jars. You can buy plastic tops for these, which I drilled holes into, and into which I insert my wooden popsicle sticks. they’re wider and shorter than a traditional popsicle, but if you make the hole “just right: and the popsicle stick is a little tight, you can have a drip catcher attached! HTH, Mary Kay

Thanks, Ardesmond :) I felt bad making such a great ice pop and putting it in that plastic form… so, Thanks to Mary Kay for her great idea too! I’m going to have to look in Target or Walmart next time to see what else i can use to form some ice pops! Thanks eveyone!
