Red, White, & Blue Popsicles

I don't know about where you live, but it has been brutally hot here. Some days you walk out the door, and feel the vapor attack you. It takes a good five minutes for my camera's parts to get de-fogged, and I'm sweating within 30 seconds of stepping outside. 

Needless to say, we are consuming large quantities of anything cold around here - I'm drinking iced coffee, eating cold salads, and trying to be in the air conditioning every possible moment. 

Obviously, cold treats are a must, but after consuming way more ice cream than we should while on vacation, I'm trying to opt for some healthier alternatives. So I ordered these popsicle molds* off of Amazon. (*affiliate link)

On Monday, I had some berries that I needed to use up, so I decided to go ahead and make some popsicles. I wasn't in the mood to use the blender, so I just tossed the ingredients into the mold. It could not be any easier! I'm not including measurements because I honestly didn't measure them. This isn't a true recipe, just a guideline! 

These popsicles, aside from being crazy refreshing, also have no sugar added, are really hydrating, and contain a serving of fruits (as well as some protein because of the Greek yogurt). Plus, those last bits of fruit that hadn't been used up didn't have to go to waste!

Ingredients

strawberries, hulled and sliced
blueberries
coconut water
plain Greek yogurt

Directions

1. Place sliced strawberries at the bottom of the popsicle mold.
2. Cover strawberries with coconut water. 
3. Add Greek yogurt to the mold, until it is about 2/3 full. 
4. Place blueberries on top of the Greek yogurt. 
5. Cover blueberries with coconut water (make sure popsicle mold is filled). 
6. Insert popsicle sticks. 
7. Freeze 6-8 hours or overnight. 

​Enjoy! ​

I mean, look at that face and tell me he didn't enjoy those! lol

Keep cool, lovers!
