Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 container Simply Lemonade (about 32 ounces)
  • 1 cup strawberries, diced
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberries: Add the diced strawberries to a small bowl, then sprinkle the sugar over them. Mix gently and let the mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes until the strawberries release their juices. You can lightly mash a few strawberries if you prefer small pieces in your popsicles, or keep them mostly whole for texture.
  2. Fill Popsicle Molds: Evenly spoon the strawberry and sugar mixture into your popsicle molds until all the mixture is used up. This forms the fruity base of your popsicles.
  3. Add Lemonade: Pour Simply Lemonade over the strawberry mixture in each mold, leaving a small space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing. This adds a refreshing citrusy layer to your popsicles.
  4. Freeze: Place the lid on your popsicle molds and insert the popsicle sticks securely. Freeze the molds until the popsicles are completely solid, typically for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
  5. Optional Stirring for Even Distribution: Note that some strawberries may float to the bottom during freezing. If you want strawberries evenly distributed throughout, gently stir the popsicles during the early freezing phase. However, for ease and a delightful surprise at the end, you can skip this step as the mix tastes great either way.

Notes

  • Lightly mashing some strawberries before adding sugar allows for a mix of textures in the popsicle.
  • Leaving space on top of the mold is crucial for expansion to prevent cracking.
  • Gently stirring early in the freezing process can distribute strawberries evenly but is optional.
  • Use fresh strawberries for best flavor and texture.
  • These popsicles are perfect for a quick, no-cook summer dessert or snack.
