Popsicle Variations

There are few variations if you want to switch up the flavors and ingredients and here is how!

• Yogurt – use coconut yogurt or you can also use vanilla flavored yogurt. If using vanilla yogurt just omit the honey or any other added sweeteners.
• Berries – of course we use a bunch of red strawberry fruit, but you can use any other fruit you want! Try it with peaches, blueberries, raspberries, or mango fruit.
• Sweeteners – in place of honey you can also use maple syrup, agave syrup, or monk fruit. Regular sugar is fine, but I personally don’t even have it in my home since it’s not the best for humans;-).
