When it's hot, hot, hot, cool down with a refreshing and healthy Strawberry Popsicle!
Made with just one ingredient (plus a few optional extras), they are super quick and easy to make, a great way to use up overripe strawberries, and the perfect summer treat.
Ingredients
These strawberry popsicles have just one essential ingredient. Strawberries. If they are ripe and sweet that's all that's necessary for great-tasting popsicles.
If your strawberries aren't the best and need a little help you can add a little sweetener to perk them up and enhance the strawberry flavor.
Optional Flavorings
Feel free to add some extra flavorings to take your Strawberry Popsicles up a notch. Some additions that I enjoy:
- a small handful of fresh mint or basil
- the juice of a lime
- a drop of vanilla extract
- a couple of pinches of freshly ground black pepper
- a drop of good-quality balsamic vinegar
- a dollop of dairy-free yogurt or coconut cream
How To Make Homemade Strawberry Popsicles
Strawberry Popsicles are made in just a few easy steps:
- Blend up the strawberries and any optional flavorings.
- Pour the mixture into a popsicle mold.
- Secure the tops and freeze.
- Once frozen carefully remove your homemade popsicles from the molds and enjoy.
My Favourite Popsicle Mold
I use an Onyx popsicle mold and love it. Although they are a little pricey as far as popsicle molds go, they will last a lifetime so are much more environmentally friendly than plastic ones.
Recipe FAQs
If you don't own a popsicle mold, now is a great time of year to invest in one, or just pick up some wooden popsicle or lolly pop sticks and use disposable cups as molds.
Remove from the freezer and leave the popsicles on the kitchen counter for a couple of minutes. Or immediately run under warm water for about 10 seconds. They should slip right out.
Juicy berries like raspberries, cherries, or blackberries work well, or other soft and juicy fruits such as peaches, nectarines, and mangos.
Yes. Allow them to defrost then continue with the recipe. Frozen strawberries don't have as much flavor as fresh strawberries though so bear that in mind. Adding the optional sugar would be a good idea.

Super delicious. I subbed the maple w/ some simple syrup since I didn't want any maple flavor. So glad the mint didn't come across as overpowering or toothpaste-y lol. Thanks for the great recipe!
