Red White and Blue Popsicles are the perfect cute, festive, sweet treat for the 4th of July! These fun and tasty treats are so cute and easy to make. These colorful Smoothie Pops are healthy too! I used Greek Yogurt, fresh fruit, and raw organic sugar to keep them fresh and light, while still being super yummy. Healthy Homemade popsicles are so much fun for summer!

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped strawberries 167 grams
  • 1½ tablespoons granulated sugar 18 grams, divided
  • ¾ cup water 170 grams, divided
  • 3 cups plain greek yogurt 681 grams, divided
  • Red and blue food coloring optional
  • 1 cup blueberries 170 grams
  • 1 banana chopped

Instructions

  • Blend the strawberries with ½ tablespoon sugar and ¼ 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.
    1 cup chopped strawberries, 1½ tablespoons granulated sugar, ¾ cup water, Red and blue food coloring, 3 cups plain greek yogurt
  • 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.
    1 cup blueberries, 1 banana
  • Start by adding a layer of blueberry mixture to the bottom of each popsicle mold. Add popsicle sticks (if your mold doesn't come with them) 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.

Notes

  • For a bit more sweetness, use vanilla Greek yogurt.
  • You can change up the fruit flavors by using raspberries in place of the strawberries and blackberries in place of the blueberries.
Storage: Store red white and blue popsicles in the freezer for up to 1 month.
