Pomegranate, Raspberry, and Nectarine Popsicles
I forgot to show you this recipe for Pomegranate, Raspberry, and Nectarine Popsicles I blogged about over at Tablespoon a couple of weeks ago. They are my new favorite treat for summer, and I don’t have to feel guilty about eating them. The kids love them too!
Madeline really loves popsicles right now and it’s been so darn hot, I don’t blame her! Do you have any homemade popsicle recipes you love that are semi-healthy? What is your favorite hot weather treat?
Pomegranate, Raspberry, and Nectarine Popsicles
a goodLife {eats} creation
Ingredients:
8 ounces pomegrante or pomegranate-nectarine juice
8 ounces frozen raspberries
4 ounces peeled and diced white nectarine
8 three ounce sized dixie cups
8 popsicle sticks
foil
Directions:
In a blender or small food processor, combine the juice, raspberries, and nectarine. Puree until completely smooth and no chunks remain. Divide mixture evenly among the 8 cups. Cover each cup with foil and stick a popsicle stick through the middle of the foil. Place in the freezer and chill until frozen. Approximately 3-6 hours, depending on the original temperature of the puree.
To remove the popsicles from the cups, discard the foil and pull the stick. If you have trouble, you may run the outside of the cup under warm water for a second.
Note: I recommend chilling the juice and nectarine first for faster freezing results.
I have a party coming up and I think these popsicles may find there way on to our todo list. Thanks….
my man will LOVE these – going to try them as a cool treat!
bring on summer…we’ve only seen a few signs of ‘spring’ down here. this is a great way to use some of the fruit that the kids turn their noses up to because it is a bit too soft. summer in new mexico is beautiful. lucky lucky thing you! cheers kari
These look heavenly. I think a mixed berry version would be lovely too.

Yes, they come out easily. I added a clarification on getting them out of the cups to the recipe. π
