Making Healthy Popsicles at home is as easy as whipping up a tasty tropical fruit smoothie!
Jump to:
My daughter Olivia loves to eat frozen strawberries right out of the freezer in the summertime, and I let her because they're good for her, and, well, it's hot.
Another thing I let her eat whenever are healthy popsicles - even for breakfast! That's because these popsicles are made with fruit, juice, and other healthy ingredients.
🧂 Ingredients
- Pineapple Juice
- Berry-flavored Greens Powder
- Fresh Strawberries
- Barlean's Passion Pineapple Fish Oil (optional)
Equipment

- Blender
- Popsicle Mold
I used the Zokus Classic Pops Mold to make my pops. It makes six 3.2 ounce pops. For younger kids, you might like to use the Zoku Mini Pop Molds, which are about 0.6 ounces. They also make some really cute themed ones that would be fun for parties.
⭐ Tips
For best results, be sure to let the pops freeze for the full six hours.
