Summertime Means Berry Season
It’s summer, the temperatures are swelteringly hot, the sun is strong and bright, and the days are long.
Most importantly, it’s berry season this time of the year, and we can’t get enough of everything with berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries!).

Beat the Summer Heat with Popsicles
Popsicles have been on my list of to-make things for the longest time (around at least 3 or 4 years!) and it was only this summer that I decided to buy a proper popsicle mold and make some well-deserved popsicles.
And this mold that I got is the perfect way to make popsicles. They have a beautiful shape, and stand up right, so the popsicles don’t topple, and most importantly the popsicles come out easily.
When the temperatures rise during those hot summer days, these easy yogurt popsicles are a delicious way to cool you down! Next time you get a dessert craving, simply dig into one of these tasty treats!
Why This Recipe Works:
- Simple Ingredients: You literally need just 3 ingredients to make these homemade berry popsicles. How’s that for an uncomplicated summer recipe?
- Super Easy to Make: This mixed berry yogurt popsicles recipe is incredibly easy to make – all you need is 10 minutes of preparation time and a high-speed blender, together with your popsicle mold, and you’re good to go.
- Naturally Sweetened: There are no artificial ingredients in this sweet treat, and this healthy recipe uses a natural sweetener to balance the tartness of the berries.
- Totally Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free and Vegan: The best part is that these fruit popsicles are 100% gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan, which means that even those with Celiac disease or gluten and lactose intolerances can indulge in them without worries!
The Perfect Yogurt Popsicles For Summer
Made with summer’s fresh berries (or frozen berries if you wish to make this all year-round), coconut yogurt, and maple syrup for natural sweetness, these popsicles are refreshing enough to cool down in the summer and the perfect ode to this beautiful season.
Ingredients You’ll Need:
Here’s a visual overview of the ingredients required for this mixed berry yogurt popsicles recipe.
(For exact measurements and quantities, please scroll down to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.)
Recipe Notes + Substitutions:
- Mixed Berries: In this popsicle recipe, I used equal quantities of strawberries, blueberries and raspberries, but you can use any proportion of mixed berries as you prefer. During the summer, I enjoy using fresh berries, but frozen berries in equal quantities will work just as well.
- Coconut Yogurt: I used unsweetened coconut yogurt because we will be using maple syrup as a natural sweetener. If you don’t have coconut yogurt on hand, and are not lactose intolerant, you can substitute the coconut yogurt for the same amount of plain yogurt, vanilla yogurt or even Greek yogurt.
- Maple Syrup: I like using maple syrup as a natural sweetener to balance out the tart berries, but you may also use agave nectar if you prefer. Alternatively, if you are not vegan or lactose-intolerant, feel free to use honey instead.
How to Make Mixed Berry Yogurt Popsicles (Step by Step):
1. Combine Ingredients and Blend
Combine the fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, unsweetened coconut yogurt, and honey together in the bowl of a high-speed blender. Blend the ingredients together until you get a thick but homogeneous pink-colored mixture.
2. Pour Mixture Into Ice Pop Molds
Pour the blended mixed berry yogurt mixture into a popsicle mold and let the mixture freeze for 1 hour before placing the ice cream sticks in, leaving approximately 2 inches of the wooden sticks free.
3. Freeze Until Solid
Freeze the yogurt popsicles for at least 8 hours or overnight until solid.
4. Remove Popsicles From Mold
To remove the mixed berry yogurt popsicles from the mold, submerge the popsicle mold in a large pot of room temperature water for 20 seconds before gently pulling the popsicles out.
5. Eat and Enjoy!
Now cool off and beat the heat on those hot days with these homemade fruit popsicles!
Dish by Dish Tips/Tricks:
- Use Different Types of Fruit: I love the taste of berries, but you can also use other fruits such as peaches, nectarines, mangoes, kiwis etc. The options are endless!
- Fresh or Frozen Fruit Works: You can use fresh fruit if that’s available, but if not, equal amounts of frozen fruit will work just as well.
- How to Remove Popsicles From the Mold: The secret to removing them from the mold while keeping their shape is to submerge the popsicle mold in a large pot of room temperature water for at least 20 seconds, then gently pull a popsicle out. If the popsicle doesn’t come out easily, submerge the mold for another 10 seconds, and pull again. Serve the popsicles straightaway, or if you plan to serve them later, place them in ziplock bags in the freezer so that they hold their shape until you want to eat them!
Recipe FAQs:
If not eating the popsicles immediately, you can either leave them in the popsicle mold or remove them and place them in ziplock bags in the freezer until ready to be eaten. They will keep for up to 2 weeks in the freezer.
No popsicle mold? No worries! You can pour the berry yogurt mixture into ice cube trays and make yogurt cubes that are perfect for a bite-sized treat!
