Thanks for joining Sarah and me for Meatless Monday today. If you are a regular reader around here, and I hope you are, you may have heard I am not so thrilled with the scorching temps we’ve been having. Those hot temps have me craving cool and light foods. Today, I am sharing my healthy & easy all fruit summer popsicles. These refreshing snacks are made with all fruit and nothing else.
Healthy & Easy All Fruit Summer Popsicles
The heat has had me looking for easy ways to cool off and hydrate after my summer runs and workouts. I was surprised, after perusing the grocery freezer section, that there are very few 100% fruit popsicles. Many labels said they were “all fruit” but then had added sugar or even worse (in my opinion) sugar alcohols. All I really wanted was some sweet and refreshing all fruit summer popsicles. So I decided to blend up my own and it was way easier than I expected.
Watermelon, lime and cherry popsicles
First up, I have been all over the watermelon this summer. It’s so juicy and sweet and very hydrating. The perfect base for popsicles don’t you think? So simple I cannot believe I have never made these before. I puréed 2 cups of fresh seedless watermelon, added in fresh lime juice and some fresh cherries. So delicious and refreshing. I used frozen pitted cherries as a time saver.
Strawberry, Pineapple and Mango popsicles
Next up, I have been thoroughly enjoying all the sweet and juicy strawberries and pineapple lately so I knew I wanted to combine them into a refreshing treat. I added a little frozen mango and they became a fabulous post workout rehydration option.
Both of these all fruit summer popsicles were whipped up in 5 minutes. I placed them into the popsicle molds and 4 hours later they are ready to enjoy. No sugar, no sugar alcohols or dairy. Vegan and gluten free. Everyone can enjoy these and they should don’t you think?

I love homemade popsicles in the summer! They are so good, especially after a long run in the heat.
The best time to enjoy them!
We have been wanting popsicles for weeks but my husband hasn’t pulled out popsicle maker down and I can’t reach it. I just put a reminder in my phone for him to grab it, haha.
ha ha yes they are great this time of the year so refreshing
Interesting post, appropriated for this hot weather.
I have also forwarded your instructions to my wife.
Well thanks so much hope you both enjoy them
These look absolutely refreshing. I would love to try making these pops with my kids!
Thanks it would be fun for them to make with their favorite fruits.
Looks so refreshing! I was just thinking you could put milk (any kind) in them to make them dreamsicles… would it work?
Sure I don’t see why not! I have done yogurt before as well.
Love these combinations! Pinned!
Thanks perfect for a post run treat!
Yum! So simple and so delicious!
Very simple and refreshing
I can’t decide which flavor I like better! I guess that means I’ll have to make both! 🙂
Yes I agree!
Oh, I gotta try these!!!!! I’m all about fruit 😉 Awesome flavor combos, Deborah!!!
Thanks! I have been enjoying them this past week. Very refreshing
Both of these sound absolutely delicious and refreshing, especially after a long run
Thanks they have been just perfect this week!
These look so good! I am definitely going to try the watermelon ones. Strawberries aren’t in season at the moment – they are a winter fruit here – but will save that idea too.
How interesting on the strawberries! The watermelon are my favorite hope you enjoy
Oh my gosh yes, I’ve been loving all things fruit throughout my pregnancy… Smoothies, bowls of fruit, ice pops, sorbets – you name it, I’ve been eating it!
They are refreshing and good for you and the baby!
Yum, I love making popsicles for the kids! This look amazing, I know my kids will really enjoy both combos of flavors!!
Great! They are so easy and super refreshing
Popsicles are such a refreshing treat for the summer! And my kids love to help make them too! YUM!
