Description
Festive, refreshing, and naturally fruity, these homemade bomb pops feature red, white, and blue layers of strawberry, coconut, and blueberry. A healthier twist on the nostalgic frozen treat, they’re perfect for hot summer days or patriotic celebrations.
Ingredients
- 1 cup strawberry puree or strawberry juice (for red layer)
- 3/4 cup coconut milk or lemonade (for white layer)
- 1 cup blueberry puree or blueberry juice/blue sports drink (for blue layer)
- 1–2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
- Prepare popsicle molds and sticks.
- Red layer: Blend strawberries into a puree (sweeten if needed). Pour into molds, filling 1/3 of each. Freeze 30–45 minutes until partially firm.
- White layer: Stir chilled coconut milk or lemonade. Pour gently over red layer to avoid mixing. Freeze 30–45 minutes until partially set.
- Blue layer: Blend blueberries into a puree or use blueberry juice. Pour to fill molds. Insert sticks and freeze at least 4 hours or overnight until solid.
- To serve, run molds briefly under warm water to release the pops.
Notes
Freeze each layer until firm enough to hold before adding the next.Use paper cups and wooden sticks if you don’t have molds.Store tightly wrapped to prevent freezer burn; enjoy within 1 month.For creamier pops, mix yogurt into one or more layers.Try different fruit juices for unique color/flavor combinations.
