Ingredients
- 1 container Simply Lemonade (or any lemonade of your choice)
- 1 cup strawberries, diced
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Add diced strawberries to a small bowl. Sprinkle the sugar over the strawberries and mix gently. Let the mixture sit for about 5-15 minutes until juices begin to form. Lightly mash a few strawberries if you prefer chunks, or mash more thoroughly if you want a smoother texture.
- Assemble Popsicles: Spoon the strawberry mixture evenly into your popsicle molds, dividing it equally among all molds.
- Fill with Lemonade: Pour lemonade over the strawberry mixture in each mold, leaving a small space at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.
- Insert Sticks and Freeze: Place the lid on the molds and insert popsicle sticks. Freeze the popsicles until solid, which generally takes several hours or overnight.
Notes
- If you want strawberries distributed evenly throughout the popsicle, gently stir the mixture once or twice while freezing, but know that some strawberries may float to the bottom without stirring.
- You can substitute sugar with honey if preferred for a natural sweetener.
- Use fresh or thawed frozen strawberries depending on availability.
- Homemade lemonade can be used instead of store-bought Simply Lemonade for a more natural flavor.
