HOMEMADE POPSICLES
Hi friends! My name is Jamielyn, from I Heart Naptime and I’m so excited to be guest posting today on The Idea Room. I absolutely adore Amy and her blog.
Today I have a super simple and fun popsicle recipe for you. I don’t know about your kids, but my kids eat popsicles like they are going out of style! After taking one look at the ingredients in the typical “popsicle” I realized they were pure sugar. That’s when I decided we would start making our own popsicles. My kids have loved making them and they are SO much healthier. These popsicles are 100% fruit and taste amazing. They are the perfect summer treat.
We’ve made so many different flavors this summer and my favorite so far would have to be the strawberry watermelon. Here’s what you’ll need to get started….Basically all you need is fresh fruit. You can mix in yogurt as well. We like to use whatever is in our fridge. Here are a few of our favorite combos:
- Apples, spinach and pineapple juice
- Grapes and berries
- Orange juice, pineapple and bananas
- Strawberry and watermelon
Then all you need to do is blend it up in a blender. You can add a little fruit juice if you’d like as well to thin it out.
Next you’re going to place the juice in a bag or mold (we like to use a funnel to make it less messy) and then place in the freezer for about 4 hours, or until frozen.
Then enjoy the popsicles! I like to send my kids outside to enjoy :)
So super simple and the perfect healthy treat for summer! If you’re looking for more homemade ice cream and popsicle recipes, I’ve got you covered!

Where do you get the tubes for popsicles?
The Idea Room Assistant says
You can buy them on Amazon. Thanks.
Ikea has nice ones…..reusable….and they have lids.
Doesn’t most fruit have sugar? So maybe product is no-sugar-added but definitely not sugar-free.
That’s true. Thanks for the suggestion!
My kids loved having such a delicious and easy to enjoy treat. I loved how healthy it is for them. Thanks for this timely summer treat recipe!
