The perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day is to pop these decadent frozen treats made with only three ingredients!
Hot summer days require popsicles to stay alive. I really mean it. It is 90 degrees Fahrenheit outside as I’m writing this recipe. Plus all the humidity in NYC makes the heat less tolerable.
What is a better way to cool down other than licking these little popsicles that you know you made yourself!
It only has three ingredients. No refined sugar. Plus a lot of love.
The three ingredients are banana, strawberries and almond milk. You can use any nut milk you’d like. I just always have my fave unsweetened vanilla almond milk on hand and I end up using it in most of my recipes.
By the way, do you know how popsicles were invented? Like all amazing inventions, it was – you guessed it – by accident!
In 1905, an 11-year-old boy in San Francisco left a mixture of soda and water with a stirring stick in a cup outside his porch overnight. The temperature dropped and it was an unusually cold night in SF that night. When the boy woke up in the morning, he discovered his mixture was frozen. In 1925, the popsicle inventor, Frank Epperson, sold the popsicle rights to a company in New York and sat back to collect royalties for many years to come.
Pretty cool story to tell friends as you’re serving your own homemade healthy popsicles. 😉
