Ingredients

2 cups fresh or frozen fruit (e.g., strawberries, mango, or mixed berries)
1/4 cup granulated sugar or honey (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup water (if needed for blending)

Instructions

Wash and hull fresh fruit if using. If using frozen fruit, let it thaw slightly.
Combine fruit, sugar or honey, and lemon juice in a blender. Add water if needed to help blending.
Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity.
Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds if desired (optional).
Pour into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.
Insert sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours or until solid.
To unmold, run warm water over the outside of the mold for a few seconds.

Tips

For creamy popsicles, replace half the fruit with yogurt or coconut milk.
Store leftover puree in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Try layering different fruit purees for a striped effect.
