Red White and Blue Smoothie Pops are the perfect cute, festive, sweet treat for the 4th of July!
I’m a total sucker for cute popsicles, and these Red White and Blue Smoothie Pops are my absolute favorite! I love that their fun, festive, EASY, and also pretty healthy! The best of all worlds coming together just in time for the Fourth of July! Yay!
I made these using fresh and simple ingredients, and that’s why they’re so good. Greek Yogurt, Fresh Fruit, and Sugar In The Raw Organic White. I’ve mentioned In the Raw before, it’s one of my very favorite and most used brands, and I’m so honored to be partnering with them this year to bring you healthier twists on some of my favorite recipes. I used their Monk Fruit In the Raw for my Chocolate Covered Strawberry Frozen Yogurt, and their Agave In the Raw for my Strawberry Jalapeño Margaritas. For these sweet pops I used Sugar In the Raw Organic White. It might just be my favorite product in their line. It’s organic, non-GMO certified, and 100% unbleached. It’s the perfect substitution for any recipe that calls for sugar. Literally perfect for so many occasions.
These simple pops are so great for the 4th of July or Memorial Day, and you can feel good about serving them to your loved ones. I hope you love them as much as we do!
Be sure to check out the In The Raw family of sweeteners on their site, facebook, and twitter. You won’t regret it! Be on the lookout for me using the other great types of healthier sweeteners and for doing lots of product giveaways this year as well!!
Happy Fourth of July!!

Instructions
- Blend the strawberries with 1/2 tablespoon Sugar In the Raw Organic White and 1/4 cup water. Pulse until well combined. Add 1 cup greek yogurt and blend until fully smooth. Add 3 drops red food coloring if you would like the color to be a bit more vibrant; totally optional. Set aside. Keep refrigerated until use.
- Repeat steps with each type of fruit, using blue food coloring with the blueberries if you want the color to be a bit more blue, again, optional.
- Start by adding a layer of blueberry mixture to the bottom of each popsicle mold. Add your popsicle sticks and allow layer to freeze for about 2 hours. Follow with layer of either banana or strawberry, alternating if you wish. Allow this layer to freeze as well before adding your final layer.
- Allow pops to freeze fully before serving.

How fun are these? My kids have been enjoying homemade popsicles this summer and I just discovered yesterday that two of my six popsicle molds are missing!
I ALWAYS lose my molds!!! I’m always looking for one or two of them. How do they get away?? Ha. Thanks for stopping by Tonia!

These popsicles are adorable! Plus they would be so easy to mix up with other fruits. I’m particularly obsessed with peaches lately so I can’t wait to try one with peaches in it too!
I agree! I want to make them with other flavors/colors soon. Thanks for stopping by Shelby!!!

Thanks Mariah!! And isn’t In the Raw the BEST?!

Thanks so much Sara!
These look absolutely delicious. Can they be made with yogurt alternatives like coconut yogurt? If so, I’d love to feature them in a blog post I’m doing on healthy 4th of July recipes.
Yes I think coconut yogurt would be great! I’ve never had it, but if the consistency is similar to greek yogurt they pops should set up just fine. Thanks for including the post Karen!
