Cherry Yogurt Popsicles Notes And Expert Tips

• Ensure that the sugar is completely dissolved in the mixture so that the popsicles freeze smoothly and do not have a grainy texture.

• Half-cup molds will work best for this recipe, but any size will work. You will have to adjust the freeze time if using a larger mold.

• Chopping the cherries into smaller pieces will allow them to be distributed more evenly in the mold and not sick to the bottom.

• If fresh cherries are out of season, frozen cherries will work in these popsicles. Allow the frozen cherries to thaw, then carefully pat them dry to remove extra liquid so the popsicles do not become extra icy.

How To Serve Cherry Yogurt Popsicles

Set up a DIY topping bar with items like crushed pretzels, chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, coconut, or mini M&M’s so your guests can customize their popsicle before or while they are enjoying their tasty treat.

Freeze the yogurt mixture in silicone ice cube trays. Drop a cherry yogurt cube into a glass of fizzy cream soda, Sprite, or sparkling water. The pop melts into the drink, making a creamy, fizzy float.

These cherry yogurt popsicles are a delicious, healthy treat. These are perfect to keep a healthy supply stocked for a quick snack for your kids and their friends.
