On hot summer days, sometimes you just need something cold and sweet to cool you down. And if you ask us, nothing does that better than a popsicle (or as us Aussies call them, an ‘ice block’). The only problem is, most of the store-bought varieties are loaded with sugar and other nasties. Thankfully, it’s super easy to make your own healthy versions at home.
Not only are these homemade popsicle recipes the perfect guilt-free solution to your summer sugar cravings, they’re actually a great way to pack some extra nutrition into your day. They’re basically like having your smoothie or green juice in frozen form!
Scroll through the gallery for 11 of our favourite healthy and delicious icy pop recipes to enjoy by the beach or pool this summer.
