Ingredients
- 1 container Simply Lemonade (approximately 64 oz)
- 1 cup strawberries, diced
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Add the diced strawberries into a small bowl. Sprinkle the sugar on top and mix well. Let the mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes until the strawberries release their juices. Optionally, lightly mash a few strawberries to create a mix of textures with some small bits and some whole pieces.
- Fill Popsicle Molds: Evenly spoon the strawberry mixture into the popsicle molds until the mixture is fully used. The strawberry pieces will add texture and bursts of flavor within each popsicle.
- Add Lemonade: Pour Simply Lemonade over the strawberry mixture in each mold, leaving a small gap at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
- Insert Lids and Sticks: Place the lids on the molds securely and insert popsicle sticks through the designated holes.
- Freeze: Freeze the popsicles until they are completely solid, approximately 4 to 6 hours or overnight for best results.
Notes
- Some strawberries may float to the bottom during freezing; if you prefer strawberries evenly distributed, gently stir the mixture a few times while freezing.
- The mixture can be pureed for smoother popsicles or left chunky for a textured bite.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
