Equipment

Ingredients

For the Red Strawberry Layer

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced 300 grams
  • 3 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon Juice

For the White Lime Layer

  • 1 cup whole milk yogurt 240 ml (Homemade or Brown Cow Cream Top Vanilla)
  • 2 tablespoon Lime Juice Juice of one lime
  • 3 Tablespoons granulated sugar

For the Blueberry Layer

  • 1 ½ cup white grape juice 140 grams
  • 1 teaspoon Blue Spirulina Powder

Instructions

  • Prepare and Pour the Red Strawberry Layer: Place the sliced strawberries and sugar directly into a small saucepan over medium-low heat. As the pan warms, the sugar will draw out the strawberries' natural juices. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. The strawberries will completely break down into a thick, concentrated, brilliant crimson syrup.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice. Let it cool for a few minutes. Pour the mixture into a blender and process on high until completely smooth.
    Divide the vibrant red liquid evenly among the top ⅓ of your popsicle molds. Place flat in the freezer for 30 minutes until firm to the touch but not rock solid.
  • Prepare and Pour the White Lime Layer:While the red layer chills, grab a small bowl and whisk together the 121​ cups of vanilla whole milk yogurt, 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice, and optional sweetener until smooth.True Citrus
  • Once the strawberry layer is stable enough to hold weight, carefully ladle the white yogurt mixture into the middle ⅓ of the molds.
  • Slide your wooden popsicle sticks straight down through the center of the molds. The semi-firm red layer underneath will act as an anchor to hold the sticks perfectly straight and centered!
    Return the mold to the freezer for 20 to 30 minutes to set.
  • Prepare your Blue Layer: Whisk together grape juice and Blue Spirulina powder. Pour into molds
    Let harden in freezer for 6-12 hours. Enjoy!
