Nothin' better than a strawberry lemonade popsicle!

These pops are the perfect summertime treat. They kinda taste like a pink Starburst candy - only better and fresher. These pops are sweet and tart and fruity and the prettiest strawberry pink color.

You'll need the zest of one lemon and the juice of three. Also, hull and halve a cup and a half of strawberries.

Throw your fruit, juice, and zest in a high speed blender with some sugar and water. After blending, give it a taste and add in more water or berries until you like the flavor.

These strawberry lemonade popsicles boast a pretty strawberry pink hue.

Freeze your pops for about 4 hours or until completely frozen. Just a head's up, it will be hard to wait. 😉

Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles
Makes 8 to 10 medium popsicles

INGREDIENTS
3 large lemons
1 1/2 to 2 cups halved strawberries
1/2 cup sugar
About 2 cups water

DIRECTIONS
1. Zest one lemon and juice them all.
2. Pour strained lemon juice, lemon zest, strawberries, sugar, and 1 cup of water into a high speed blender and blend on low until the strawberries are broken down.
3. Increase blender speed to high and blend until you can no longer see flecks of lemon zest and mixture is smooth. Taste and add in more water to taste. I ended up using about 2 cups total. You can also add in more berries.
4. Pour into popsicle molds. Mixture may separate. That's okay.
5. Freeze for 4 hours or until completely solid.
