Blueberry Limeade Popsicle is refreshing in every lick, and bursting with vibrant flavours. It's gorgeous to look at, and a delightful treat on a hot summer afternoon.

Summer can feel dreadfully hot when you don't have something to cool you off. Lucky for you, I'm about to share with you my family's favourite frozen treat and it is the Blueberry Lemonade Popsicle!

With each icy bite, the tangy essence of freshly squeezed limes intertwines harmoniously with the sweet blueberries. In the summer, Mexico is always packed with fresh lime from a local state, and when May comes around the corner, blueberry is in season.

There is no flavour more absurdly satisfying than the combination of zesty lime and succulent blueberries. 

And can we also talk about how it looks? The vibrant hues of deep purple and vivid green tantalize the eyes, hinting at the refreshing experience to come. It's a delightful balance of tartness and natural sweetness that transports you to a serene summer day

Blueberry Limeade is the perfect choice for those seeking a burst of vibrant flavours that rejuvenate the senses and bring a smile to your face with every lick.

How To Make Blueberry Limonade Popsicles

You only need 4 ingredients to make it! It is really that simple! And they are lime, sugar( or agave syrup), water, and fresh/frozen blueberries!

What Do You Need to Make Homemade Popsicles?

Firstly, you will need a popsicle mould. The one I like is with silicon because you can stretch and pull to get the popsicles out. It is easier to store as well in cabinets. The one I like is Silicone Popsicles Molds, you can find it on Amazon. Another thing I like about this mould is that I can use wooden sticks.


I mean, come on, who hates it when a plastic stick goes missing, and you're running through the kitchen looking for it? I despise playing hide-and-seek with the reusable sticks because I end up looking like a crazy lady searching for them.


If you have kids and want a smaller size, you can buy the 6 Silicon Popsicle Moulds. It comes with its own plastic sticks and makes about 3.3oz of each popsicle (perfect for children!)

If you have a preferred mould, use it. In essence, they are all the same, so long as you have a popsicle at the end of the day.

Create a memorable family moment!


This blueberry limonade popsicle recipe is so simple and delicious that asking the kids to join in can create a fantastic summer memory for them.

When the kids see me laying out the limes on the kitchen with a big bowl beside it, they always guess its popsicle time! Engaging kids in the process of making popsicles can be a wonderfully enjoyable and educational experience.

As they eagerly gather around the kitchen counter, measuring ingredients and mixing flavors, they embark on a hands-on adventure that combines fun with learning. Through this creative endeavor, children have the opportunity to enhance their culinary skills, develop an understanding of various ingredients, and gain insights into the science of freezing and transforming liquids into delightful frozen treats.

Children in the kitchen can learn about:

  •  flavours
  • textures
  • the importance of balance in creating delicious combinations
  • measuring ingredients to help fosters their mathematical abilities
  • encourages reading comprehension
  • sequencing skills. 

Beyond the kitchen, making popsicles as a family can foster teamwork, communication, and bonding. It's a delightful way for kids to explore their creativity, express themselves, and take pride in the tasty results of their efforts. By involving children in the popsicle-making process, we not only nurture their culinary curiosity but also provide them with a valuable foundation of knowledge and skills that will last a lifetime.

Prep Time 10 minutes
Course Dessert
Servings 8 people

Equipment

  • high speed blender

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • ½ cup lime juice 6 limes
  • â…“ cup cane sugar or 1 tbsp agave syrup
  • 3 cups water

Instructions
 

  • In a high-speed blender, add the blueberries, sugar and water together. Blend until chunky and not completely smooth. Set aside.
  • Rinse the blender well. Toss in the lime juice, sugar, and water. Blend on high until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  • Split the lime mixture into your popsicle moulds. It should be ¾ full. Put the mould into the freezer for about 2-3 hours. We want it slightly frozen, not completely.
  • When the popsicles are slightly frozen, add the blueberry mixture and top it with with ¼" inch of space at the top. This allow the popsicles to expand in the freezer. Insert the popsicle sticks into the mould.
  • Freeze for 5 hours or overnight.
  • To Remove Popsicles: Let the mould stand on the counter for a few minutes. Run the popsicle mould under lukewarm water to help loosen. If you have a silicon mould you can pull and stretch it to release the popsicles.
  • Place the popsicle mould on a plate surface and wiggle the popsicles out.
  • Wrap the popsicles in plastic when you place them back into the freezer. This helps prevent them from being exposed to air and moisture and maintains the quality and texture of the popsicles, preventing freezer burn and ice crystal formation.
