Fruit popsicles don’t get any easier or tastier than these watermelon strawberry popsicles! A healthy summer dessert recipe that kids and adults love!

strawberry watermelon fruit popsicles 

Is there anything better than an ice cold popsicle on a summer day? These whole fruit popsicles are so refreshing, and they are beautiful, too! The berries and watermelon make a gorgeous shade of pink.

Are popsicles healthy?

It really depends on the type of popsicles you eat. If you are buying artificially flavored and colored popsicles that have lots of corn syrup in them, then no, those are not healthy.

But if you’re making your own popsicles at home with healthy, whole fruit, then yes, those are a healthy summer treat.

How do you make fruit popsicles?

It’s so easy! Just blend some watermelon, and some strawberries, and then fill your popsicle molds. Stick them in the freezer, and in a few hours, you will have deliciously fruity popsicles to enjoy.

Of course, you will want to make sure that the fruit you choose is very sweet and ripe for the best flavor. You can improvise – use a variety of berries, or different melon, or some citrus fruit.

Whatever fruit you choose, the steps are the same – blend your fruit, pour into the molds, and freeze.

How to make creamy fruit popsicles:

The process is basically the same, but you will need to add some dairy free yogurt to your popsicles for a creamy texture. Try these Pina Colada Popsicles, or these Blackberries and Cream Pops.

You can also try adding avocado or full-fat coconut milk for a creamy texture. Avocado would add some nice healthy fats to the popsicles.

    You could also put some whole berries after you bled the most of the juice.

      Hi Liz! The mold for these is actually a Tupperware mold from quite awhile ago. It is nice because it is a smaller size, which is better for kids, in my opinion.

    Yum! I’ve been putting a ton of watermelon in my smoothies in place of …water! :) A shame you couldn’t find any sticks anywhere. I’ve had the same problems when making caramel apples!

    I love the ombre effect of these, and that they only have two ingredients! Fresh fruit pops are my favorite, because I can enjoy them knowing that I’m having a healthy treat. I can’t wait to see what other recipes you have in store this week!

    Popsicle week … I love it! Perfect way to kick off summer! I also totally love how simple (and ombre! lol!) these are! Well, and not to mention the brilliant tip for the popsicle sticks (I’ve kinda wondered about those craft sticks, too …). Pinning for sure!
