Ingredients
  • 1 small frozen banana
  • ½ cup coconut cream {read notes}
  • ½ cup frozen strawberries or raspberries
  • ½ cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup filtered water
  • stevia
  • popsicle molds
Instructions
  1. In a strong blender or Vitamix, puree banana and coconut cream until creamy.
  2. Taste and add stevia if you like it sweeter. Pour into a separate jar and put in refrigerator.
  3. In Vitamix, puree the strawberries/raspberries with ½ cup water until creamy.
  4. Add a few dashes of stevia at a time, tasting as you go. Pour into a jar and set aside.
  5. In Vitamix, puree blueberries and ½ cup water until creamy. Add a few dashes of stevia as you taste.
  6. Pour into a jar and set blueberry mixture in the refrigerator.
  7. In the popsicle mold, pour the "first" layer using the red strawberry blend. Fill about ½ " or 1".
  8. You will freeze it up to ½ hour and pour "second" stripe using the white banana blend; fill the same amount and freeze for ½ hour.
  9. IMPORTANT if you are using wooden sticks place them in the "third" stripe of white.
  10. Freeze it again for up to a ½ hour and alternate white with red stripes until you have 2-2½ inches left at the top for the blueberry stripe.
  11. Lastly, freeze up to a few hours until they set.
Notes
Depending on the type of popsicle molds you use you may have left over mixture. Also, keep in mind when you will be putting sticks in as I goofed that up for you the first time. Yes, I had the hammer out. Make sure you stabilize sticks. The blueberry mixture is more purple but still gives the effect we are going for with out the artificial colors. If you follow directions there will be no need to rinse out blender container. Be careful with your stevia as too much gives it a strong flavor. You could use honey but I was trying to keep the natural sugar low. Please use organic when you can especially with the berries.
