☀️ Why You’ll Love These Popsicles

  • Naturally sweetened – no refined sugar

  • Protein-packed thanks to Greek yogurt

  • Make-ahead friendly – great for prepping in batches

  • Kid-approved and adult-adored

  • Customizable with add-ins like berries, coconut, or granola

🍋 Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups plain Greek yogurt (dairy-free options work too!)

  • Zest of 1 lemon

  • Juice of 2 lemons (about ¼ cup)

  • ¼ to ⅓ cup honey or maple syrup (to taste)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Optional: pinch of turmeric for color or a handful of crushed graham crackers for texture

🧊 Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey/maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir until smooth and creamy.

  2. Taste and adjust sweetness or lemoniness to your liking. (Some like it tangier, others a bit sweeter!)

  3. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds.

  4. Insert sticks and freeze for at least 4–6 hours, or until fully set.

  5. To release, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds and gently pull popsicles free.

✨ Variations & Add-Ins

  • Berry Swirl: Add a few teaspoons of smashed raspberries or blueberries into each mold before freezing.

  • Graham Cracker Crunch: Sprinkle crushed graham crackers into the molds for a pie-inspired twist.

  • Coconut Cream: Substitute half the yogurt with canned coconut milk for a tropical flair.

  • Herbal Twist: Stir in a little chopped fresh mint or basil for a sophisticated edge.
