Ingredients

Strawberry Popsicles

2 ½ cups strawberries quartered
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon honey
Pinch salt

Mango Popsicles

2 ¼ cups mango chopped
¼ cup orange juice

Instructions

Add the fruit, juice, honey, and salt to a blender and blend until smooth.
Divide the fruit puree between four (4-ounce) popsicle molds and cap with the tops of the molds. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.
To unmold, run the bottoms of the popsicle molds under hot water for about 5 seconds, then pull out the popsicles.

Notes

Storage: Popsicles can be stored in the molds, or unmold and wrap them in non-stick material like parchment paper, plastic wrap, or wax paper and store them in a resealable freezer safe-bag or airtight container. They are best within six weeks, but will last for up to three months.

My Top Tip: Taste the puree before you freeze it. The sweetness of fruit varies by season and ripeness. The flavor also dulls slightly once frozen, so the puree should taste a little more intense than you want the final popsicle to be.
