One of life’s simplest treats has to be fruit popsicles. Is there anything better on a warm day? But many ready-made popsicles you’ll find in the freezer aisle are loaded with sugar. That’s why we recommend DIY-ing your own. You get to choose which fruit to fill those popsicle molds with and whether or not you want a creamy add in like Greek yogurt, avocado, or coconut milk.

If you’re looking for inspiration here are 5 delicious fruit popsicles to whip up now.

P.S. If you don’t have popsicle molds or are looking to upgrade yours, we love Tovolo Groovy Ice Pop Molds.
