Ingredients
Red Layer
  • 1 cup (5 oz/142 g) strawberries, fresh or defrosted
  • cup (2 ½ fl oz/80 ml) lemonade
  • cup (2 ½ oz/71 g) plain yogurt
  • 1-2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1-2 drops red food coloring (optional)
White Layer
  • cup (5 fl oz/160 ml) lemonade
  • cup (2 ½ oz/71 g) plain yogurt
  • 1-2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Blue Layer
  • ½ cup (2½ oz/71 g) blueberries, fresh or defrosted
  • cup (2½ floz/80 ml) lemonade
  • cup (2½ oz/71 g) plain yogurt
  • 1-2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1-2 drops blue food coloring (optional)
Instructions
Make The Red Layer
  1. Combine the strawberries, lemonade, yogurt, 1 teaspoon of sugar and food coloring (if using) in a blender and puree until smooth. Taste and add more sugar if needed.

  2. Pour evenly into 10 popsicle molds, then insert wooden popsicle sticks and freeze until solid, at least 2 hours.

Make The White Layer
  1. Combine the lemonade, yogurt and 1 teaspoon of sugar in a blender and process until smooth. Taste and add sugar if needed.

  2. Pour evenly over the frozen red layer and freeze until solid, at least 2 hours.

Make The Blue Layer
  1. Combine the blueberries, lemonade, yogurt, 1 teaspoon of sugar and food coloring (if using) in a blender and puree until smooth. Taste and add more sugar if needed.

  2. If desired, strain to remove the skin, then pour evenly on top of the frozen white layer. Freeze now for a minimum of 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
  3. To unmold, run the mold under warm water for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles.
  4. Store leftovers in the freezer and in their molds for up to 2 week.

Recipe Notes
  • To make these popsicles 100% natural, don’t use food coloring.
  • You can replace the granulated sugar with honey or agave, but this will affect the color slightly. 
  • You can use vanilla yogurt in the layers instead of plain yogurt. If you do, leave out the granulated sugar as vanilla yogurt will be sweet enough.
  • If your popsicle sticks are not standing up straight, let them freeze for a bit before inserting them.
  • Be sure that each layer is fully frozen before adding the next or the colors will lift and blend.
  • After adding each color make sure to wipe down the walls of the mold so you get clean layers.
