Summer has definitely arrived in south Florida. And it’s right around the corner for the rest of the country as well.
It’s been hot & humid and in the mid to high 80’s. The perfect time to make these 3 ingredient popsicles. I’ve recently partnered with Pressed Juicery and got inspired by one of their juices they sent me, and added it to the recipe.
I used their Strawberry Basil lemonade to infuse a taste of tart sweet strawberry with just a hint of basil. Delicious, earthy and refreshing. Especially when I come back from my afternoon walks!
Pressed Juicery is healthy cold pressed juice sourced from central California. They offer cold pressed juice (including green juice cleanses) soft serve, smoothie bundles, & power-packed shots. Visit the link to learn more about them.
Homemade Popsicles: How to make:
Let’s move on to the recipe. Homemade popsicles are a breeze to make. All you need are just a few simple ingredients:
I love that this 3 ingredient version has no added refined sugar. It’s quick to make, (aside from freezing time) healthy, and those bits of ripe sweet Florida mango right off the tree really add a natural sweet flavor.
I feel so lucky to live in south Florida where we’re drenched in sunshine and some of the freshest fruit is picked right off the tree. Like coconuts, bananas, oranges, mango, lemon, limes, papaya, & avocados, just to name a few.
Many of our neighbors grow fruit right in their front yard and it falls off the tree right to the ground. They are happy to share with the neighborhood because it’s so plentiful. I have witnessed neighbors going around with loaded bags of fruit offering it to their street besties. So when I’m out on my walks I forage (in my neighbor’s yards) for seasonal fruit.
And right now mango season is at it’s peak. You can’t beat a ripe sweet Florida mango right off the tree. And what we humans don’t get to eat, the birds, ducks, critters and bugs devour the rest.
I hope you try this healthy 3 ingredient recipe and enjoy it as much as I do. Popsicles are the perfect kick off to this upcoming Memorial Day weekend.

For this recipe shoot, I tried to keep it interesting for you all by making some rosettes out of cut mango slices and roses out of strawberries. They hardly took any time at all and there were some great tutorials on how to do both on YouTube. I used purple basil I’m growing in my herb container for the petals.
How long will homemade popsicles keep in the freezer?
Popsicles will keep fresh in freezer for several months. Doubt they will make it that far and if they don’t you can always make more. Stay tuned for more summer recipes posts. I have more easy popsicle posts coming your way. How about ice cream? You scream I scream we all scream for ice cream in the summer right!? Also stay tuned for some light & quick dinner recipes.
