Strawberry apricot popsicles
Over the summer, making popsicles happens probably at least twice a week. I always try to make them with fresh fruit and sometimes even sneak in some vegetables such as fresh spinach. This time around I just kept it simple and made these Strawberry apricot popsicles that were just plain sensational.
These strawberry apricot popsicles have just 3 ingredients. The strawberries, apricots and Truvia’s new product, Truvia Nectar. I must say I am in love. The flavor of this nectar is more subtle than using straight honey so I think it blends really well with the fruit, plus the calories of this sweetener is not as high.
You can make endless variations when it comes to making popsicles. I actually own a couple of popsicle molds since I make them quite often. They are the perfect snack for the summer especially for kids.
I have also made boozy variations and those are even better if you know what I mean. Anything goes really!
On another note, is anyone going on vacation this summer? I am currently stuck in school until the middle of August at which time we have about 10 days brake that I can’t wait for. I love the fact that I am learning tons but I am really running out of gas. I am giving it my all so I hope I can get to the finish line. Will see how it goes!
Well, not much to elaborate in making popsicles. Popsicle molds are fairly inexpensive so invest some money on getting some, making your own popsicles is easy, healthier and much more economical than store bought.
Enjoy!

Wow! If these aren’t the best thing for Summer then I don’t know what is!
I just bought a flat of strawberries thinking I wanted to make something with them. This is definitely something I am going to do.
Homemade popsicles are the best and love that you have kept it all healthy!

These look wonderful! Apricots have such a great naturally creamy texture so they’re a perfect addition. I want one! :)
This is perfect for my kids during the hot summer days!
These look perfect! I love the molds too — I’m looking for some different ones, but haven’t been able to find any like this. :)
We have tons of popsicle molds, which get used over and over again in the summertime. They’re such a great way to make healthy treats and now I need to try your beautiful popsicles!
Do the apricots need the peel cut off or just remove the pit? This looks so yummy I can’t wait to try it!
Not peel but the pit must be removed!!!
