Nutrition
Notes
- Use ripe cherries: Sweet, ripe cherries will give the popsicles the best flavor. If your cherries are tart, add a little extra honey.
- Pit the cherries first: Make sure all pits are removed before blending so the mixture turns out smooth.
- Taste before freezing: The mixture should taste slightly sweeter before freezing because frozen treats taste less sweet once solid.
- Freeze until fully set: Let the popsicles freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight if possible, so they release cleanly from the molds.
- Run the molds under warm water: If the popsicles are hard to remove, run the outside of the mold under warm water for a few seconds.
