Why I Love These Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles
- Quick to whip up: These are literally as easy as tossing everything in a blender and pouring in the popsicle molds!
- Fresh & fruity: You can use premade lemonade, if you prefer, but using fresh lemons and strawberries truly makes these shine!
- No mystery ingredients! Store-bought popsicles can sometimes be made with syrups and fillers. With these, you know exactly what's in them!
Ingredient Note & Substitutions
- Lemons: I strongly recommend using fresh lemons for these; bottled lemon juice is just not the same!
- Strawberries: The more red & ripe, the better! You can also use frozen strawberries for this, although I still prefer fresh.
- Sugar: I use granulated sugar but you can substitute it for the sweetener of your choice. You will need to adjust the amounts based on how tart your lemons are & how sweet you like your lemonade.
- Water: You will be using a mix of hot and cold water.
- Popsicle Mold: You can use any popsicle mold for these.
How to Make Strawberry Popsicles
Step 1: Mix & Blend
- In a blender, mix the hot water (1 cup) and granulated sugar (½ cup) together until dissolved.
- Add in cold water (3 cups), fresh lemon juice (¾ cup), and strawberries (roughly 18 berries), then blend until smooth.
Step 2: Strain Seeds (Optional)
This step is optional but if you want to remove the seeds, you can run them through a strainer or sieve. I don't think it's crucial to making popsicles more than it is if you're just going to drink the strawberry lemonade (which is also good!).
Step 3: Pour Into Mold & Freeze!
Pour into popsicle mold, attach sticks, then freeze. Once frozen, run the mold under hot water to help loosen the popsicles, then slide out.
Tips & Variations
- Use other fruits! You can also swap out the strawberries for more fruit!
- Add strawberry slices: If you want some extra texture, you can also use some diced or sliced berries in your popsicles!
- Add yogurt! Add ¼ cup of your favorite yogurt to the blender to add an extra punch of protein!
Frequently Asked Questions:
I used a silicone popsicle mold from Amazon. After freezing, just run it under hot water after freezing to help loosen the popsicles.
You can add a few teaspoons of cornstarch into the blender, which can help the frozen popsicles softer to bite into!
