Ingredients For Cherry Mango Popsicles
- Ripe mangoes (the sweeter, the better);
- Pitted cherries (fresh or frozen);
- Silicone popsicle molds (or ring pop molds);
- Liquid stevia or honey (optional, for babies 12 months+);
How To Make Mango and Cherry Popsicles
- If you want to layer each fruit flavor individually, start by blending mango and cherry separate in a blender. If you want to add a little extra sweetness, add liquid stevia or honey to taste (kids 12 months and older).
- If using fresh ripe fruit, there’s no need to add any liquid for blending. If you’re using frozen cherries and mango, you may need to let it defrost for 15 minutes at room temperature for an easier blending or add a touch of water.
- For a mixed cherry mango popsicle, add the cherry and mango purees to a blender and blend until combined.
- Proceed by adding the mango puree to the popsicle molds first. Then, add the cherry puree, and alternate until the mold is full.
- Insert the popsicle sticks. Freeze for at least six hours, or overnight.
- To release the popsicles from the mold, push the bottom of the silicone mold to release it. If using plastic or metal molds, run the mold under warm water for a few seconds until the popsicle easily slides out.
