For a fun twist, try mixing these fruits with strawberries and mango. Each fruit adds its own flavor and sweetness. Play around with combinations until you find your favorite. Not everyone likes the same level of sweetness. If you want a sweeter popsicle, add more honey or maple syrup. If you prefer less sweetness, use less sweetener. Taste the mixture before you pour it into molds. This way, you can adjust it just right for your taste buds. Want a creamier popsicle? You can use coconut cream or yogurt. These add a rich texture and flavor. If you’re dairy-free, coconut cream is a perfect choice. Blend it in with the mango and strawberries for a delightful treat. Enjoy the creamy goodness without any dairy! For complete instructions on making these delicious treats, check out the Full Recipe.

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

A pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the diced mangoes, honey (or maple syrup), coconut water, fresh lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.

    First Layer: Carefully pour half of the mango mixture into popsicle molds, filling each mold about halfway full to create the first layer.

      Prepare Strawberries: In a separate bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with a tablespoon of honey (if you desire extra sweetness) until evenly coated.

        Add Strawberry Layer: Spoon the sliced strawberries evenly into each popsicle mold on top of the mango layer. Gently press them down to ensure they are submerged within the mango mixture for an even distribution.

          Top with More Mango: Pour the remaining mango mixture over the strawberries in each mold, filling them to the top. This will create a vibrant tropical layering effect in your popsicles.

            Insert Sticks: Place popsicle sticks into the center of each mold, ensuring they stand upright.

              Freeze: Carefully place the filled molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until they are completely solid.

                Release the Popsicles: To remove the popsicles from their molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to help loosen them. Then, gently pull the popsicles out.
