Strawberry Mojito Popsicles {Whole Food Popsicles}

Summer in our neighborhood means the kiddos are playing together from sunup to sundown.  Once school starts, we will have a ringing doorbell from the moment the school bus drops its load of chattering kiddos.  I’m always looking for a sweet treat to share with our littlest visitors, and it’s a bonus if it’s healthy.  Bigger bonus if mamas can share it too, and these strawberry mojito popsicles fit the bill perfectly.  It’s creamy, decadent, power-packed with nutrients, and a it’s a cool, sweet treat.

 

 

 

If you’re like me, and a craving for cold, bright ingredients isn’t limited to the summer months, you can use frozen strawberries in this recipe instead.  Be sure to use a high-powered blender or let them thaw slightly before blending.   Because it’s completely free of added sweeteners, it is also a “go” for anyone trying to limit sugars.

 

 

Full disclosure:

There are plenty of times I whip up a batch of popcorn or hand over the snip-off-dollar-store variety of frozen pops.  And plenty of other times, my kiddos benefit from the sweet generosity of our neighbor mamas.  Never feel guilty for taking the “easy route” if it frees you to be more welcoming.  😉  But if you’re feeling creative, this recipe is a simple one to make for a small, healthy indulgence.
