Ingredients

Units Scale

Divided Colors:

Blue Layer

  • 2 cups organic Blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1/4 cup full fat unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp raw local honey (or to taste)

White Layer

  • (This is the runniest layer, but it freezes just great and looks nice and white)
  • 1 large slightly green banana, fresh or frozen (if you’re ok with dairy, feel free to replace some banana and/or coconut milk with full fat plain yogurt or vanilla ice cream which is what I do sometimes)
  • 1/2 cup full fat unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 heaping Tbsp coconut flakes, unsweetened if you can find it (if using unsweetened, add 1 Tsp honey, if already sweetened, no need for honey)

Red Layer:

  • 1 1/2 cup organic Strawberries, hulled, fresh or frozen
  • 1/2 cup organic Cherries, pitted, fresh or frozen (you can use all strawberries if you like, I just like the addition of sweet cherries for flavor)
  • 1/4 cup full fat unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp raw local honey (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients for Blue Layer in blender. Pulse until smooth. (This is the thickest layer, almost like a smoothie consistency)
  2. Use a narrow Tbsp measuring spoon to carefully pour the blue layer into the lower 1/3 portion of your popsicle molds
  3. Wipe excess mixture off sides of molds with paper towel
  4. Place partially filled popsicle molds (with NO stick) in freezer for 30 minutes (just to set and harden to touch)
  5. Pull out popsicle molds and blend the White Layer in a bender. If you want to thicken it more you can add a little more banana, but be careful not to add too much to lose your white shade
  6. Fill molds with the White Layer up 2/3 of the way
  7. Place partially filled popsicle molds (with NO stick) in freezer for 30 minutes (just to set and harden to touch)
  8. Blend up the final Red Layer and then fill your popsicle molds to the “fill line” most likely marked on your molds and carefully push the mold sticks into your molds. Don’t worry if you hear a little crunching or get a little mixture movement
  9. Place fully filled popsicle molds into the freezer for a final minimum 4 hr freeze.
  10. Once final freeze complete, run a little warm water on sides of molds to help loosen the molds. Squeeze molds to help loosen and slowly pull out popsicle with mold stick and Enjoy!
