Cherry Berry Popsicle Recipe

The Cherry Berry Popsicle recipe is a 3 ingredient fruit popsicle recipe with no sugar added that you can feel good about serving your kids.

Made with 100% fruit juice, fresh cherries and blueberries, these ice pops are just like a serving of summer fruit.

Frozen Treats

Hot summer weather calls for cool treats like homemade popsicles. Popsicles are a great way to cool off when the temperatures are rising, or as an after-school snack now that it's back to school time.

Homemade popsicles made with real fruit juice are also a great way to sneak another serving of fruit into the day, and the kids won't even realize they're snacking on a good-for-you snack when they bite into these real fruit juice popsicles with fresh fruit added.

In this recipe, I added fresh cherries and blueberries, but you could add whatever kind of fresh fruit your kids love.

When it comes to serving fruit juice to my family I am a label reader! I always read the ingredient list to make sure I find real fruit juice.

I'm using 100% fruit juice with no sugar added.

How To Make Ice Pops with Juice

If you want to make homemade ice pops juice popsicles are the easiest to make.

Start with a juice product that is 100% fruit juice, organic, non-GMO and sugar-free like this tart cherry juice I'm using.

Helpful tips for making popsicles

• Almost all ice pop molds that I have ever owned has a fill line. Look closely at the top edge of the mold and you will notice a small almost invisible indention around the top edge of the mold. That is the fill line.
• When you fill popsicle molds past that line the popsicle ingredients will almost always overflow when you add the popsicle stick.
• Dixie cups make fun kid size ice pop molds.
