02 - Pour in the lime juice and sweetener if using.
03 - Blend until completely smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness as desired.
04 - Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds.
05 - Insert sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
06 - To remove, briefly run the mold under warm water and gently pull out the popsicles. Serve immediately.
# Handy Tips:
01 -
- The natural fruit sugars mean you can skip added sweeteners entirely if your produce is ripe enough
- They freeze into the most beautiful ruby color that makes everyone assume they took hours to make
02 -
- Room temperature fruit blends much smoother than cold fruit straight from the fridge
- Overfilling molds will make removal nearly impossible, so resist the urge to squeeze in that last tablespoon
03 -
- Fill your sink with warm water before attempting to remove popsicles, it's easier than running each mold under the tap individually
- Invest in silicone molds if you plan to make these often, they make removal so much less dramatic
