Raspberry Cream Greek Yogurt Pops
Alexandra F.: Creamy yogurt and sweet, tart raspberries combine to make a yummy (and healthy!) summer treat. From Little Spice Jar
Fireworks Pop
Alexandra F.: Rocket popsicles are a classic kid favorite, and with a little patience you, too, can make them at home! Be sure to give enough time for the bottom layer to freeze well before adding the next, otherwise the colors will run together. It took ours much longer to freeze than the recipe thought it would! From Food Network
Fudge Popsicles
Alexandra F.: Oh my goodness, this has to be one of the best popsicle recipes of all time - my kids and I are obsessed! They taste even better than Fudgsicles and are surprisingly easy to make. So rich, chocolatey and delicious - definitely worth the minimal effort! I used baking chocolate instead of chocolate chips. From Smitten Kitchen
Homemade Strawberry Popsicles
Alexandra F.: Just blend strawberries, sugar and water together to enjoy the taste of summer in a refreshing icy treat! From Made to Be a Momma
Lime Popsicles
Alexandra F.: These tart and refreshing homemade popsicles are the perfect treat for a hot summer day, and with only three ingredients, they are also super easy to make. I think this recipe perfectly balances tart and sweet, but it's easy to adjust the amount of sugar or water to your preference. From Blossom to Stem
Coconut Popsicles (Paletas de Coco)
Alexandra F.: These rich and decadent homemade popsicles are just as delicious as the paletas de coco I would always get with my grandpa when I was a kid, and with only four ingredients, they are ridiculously easy to make! I got just over 12 popsicles from the recipe using 4-oz molds. From Little Spice Jar
