These popsicles are deceptively easy to prepare, based on fruit juice with a few add-ins and no artificial colorings. Find more frozen treats for keeping cool in this post.

Ingredients

Orange Ice Pops

Purple Ice Pops

  • 1 cup cranberry juice

  • 1 cup frozen pitted cherries or blueberries

  • 1/3 cup Greek-style vanilla yogurt

Green Ice Pops

  • 1 cup coconut water

  • 1 cup orange juice

  • 2 cups baby spinach leaves

Directions

Prepare the Orange Ice Pops

1.

Mix all ingredients in a bowl until the sugar has completely dissolved.

Prepare the Purple Ice Pops

1.

Combine all popsicle ingredients in blender. Cover.

2.

Blend on high speed 15 to 20 seconds or until smooth.

Prepare the Green Ice Pops

1.

Place the ingredients in the order listed in a blender and blend until smooth.

For All the Pops

1.

Pour the popsicle liquid into clean popsicle molds.

2.

Cover with the popsicle sticks that came with the molds, and place the popsicles in the freezer.

3.

Leave them to set until they are completely frozen, about four hours.

Tips:

When ready to enjoy, remove the molds from the freezer and let them stand for five minutes before popping out the ices. If you’re still having trouble releasing them, fill a pan or container that is at least as tall as your mold with warm (not hot) water, and briefly dip the mold in until the pops loosen, about 20 to 30 seconds. I found all these molds super easy to use with no trouble, but these tips should help, just in case!

Notes:

To store, once you remove your popsicles from their molds, lay them on a Gefen Parchment or wax paper-covered baking sheet (or plate if that’s what will fit in your freezer) and refreeze for 15 to 20 minutes until completely re-frozen. Then place in a plastic freezer bag or airtight container.
