Strawberry Rhubarb Popsicles

(44)

Is the summer heat getting you down? Cool off with my homemade Strawberry Rhubarb Popsicles!

Now, I know popsicles aren’t traditionally considered a health food. But this version is vegan, healthy and tastes so good. It’s made with high-fiber rhubarb, a tart colorful veggie, and sweetened up with antioxidant-rich fresh strawberries and maple syrup. They’re made creamy by using full-fat coconut milk. You’ll definitely want to reach for these next time you need a cooling treat.

Start by chopping up the strawberries and rhubarb and adding the fruit to a small pot. Cook over medium heat or until the rhubarb stalks have softened, about 8 minutes.

Then add the fruit to a blender, along with the maple syrup and coconut milk. Blend on high until the mixture is well combined. Fill the molds with the strawberry rhubarb popsicle mix and freeze for 2-3 hours.

Before serving, run the molds under warm water for about 20 seconds to free the popsicles from the mold. You’ll feel great serving these popsicles to your family. Little ones will love them, but grown-ups will, too!

    It sounds fun to try every delicious looking recipe that’s why Strawberry Rhubarb Popsicles bought my attention. Honestly speaking, these popsicles are way much tastier and delicious than that of which I was anticipating.

    I am allergic to coconut, for the full fat content, is it possible to sub heavy cream? If not, please will you recommend another alternative.
