Blueberry Strawberry Popsicles

Its hard to find tasty treats that are healthy. There is nothing better than a cone of icecream, a large freezie or popsicle on a hot summer day. But, if you look at the ingredients of these toothsome treats, you will find that they are loaded with sugar, preservatives, and artificial ingredients.

But does that mean that cool treats are out? Definitely not!

These blueberry strawberry popsicles are a cinch to make, and you can mix it up using whatever kind of fruit you have on hand!

Blueberry - Strawberry Popsicles

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups frozen blueberries

1 1/2 cups frozen strawberries

3 tbsp honey

coconut water

Thaw the fruit just until they are softened. In a blender blend the blueberries. Add enough coconut water to make the blueberry puree a slushy consistency. Add 1 tbsp honey and mix. Empty the blueberry puree into a separate bowl, rinse out the blender, and blend the strawberries. I found that I did not need to add coconut water to the strawberries: they were moist enough with their own juice. Add 2 tbsp honey and mix. In popsicle molds ( I used flower shaped silicone baking molds for this batch, but you could use just about anything) fill half with the strawberry, then with blueberry purees. Put into the freezer for about 4 hours. I did not have any pospicle sticks, so I cut up skewers. Add them when the popsicles are firm enough to hold the sticks upright. Makes about 8 popsicles, depending on the size of your molds. Enjoy your very own cool and healthy summer treat!
