Healthy Fruity Striped Yogurt Popsicles
Frosty and refreshing, these yogurt popsicles with frozen peaches and blueberries are the perfect healthy treat when the weather heats up.
There are popsicles that are pure hits of summer nostalgia. Red, white, and blue with nothing natural about them whatsoever—and we love them.
Then there are popsicles that are creamy, sweet, and refreshing and so good for you that I don’t feel a wee bit guilty about having one for breakfast. I mean this yogurt popsicle recipe is essentially a frozen smoothie.
You don’t have to make them striped but I promise you it will convince even the pickiest kid to give these yogurt popsicles a try. If that’s not an issue for you, use all one fruit and forget the stripes or try a different frozen fruit combination. Frozen strawberries, raspberries, bananas, or even blackberries are all delicious.
Yogurt Popsicles Ingredients
- Low-fat or full fat vanilla yogurt. Greek yogurt works great but really any kind of yogurt will work.
- Frozen blueberries or any kind of berries
- Frozen peaches or your favorite frozen fruit like mangoes or pineapple.
- Honey or agave syrup
- Almond milk or regular whole milk
How To Make Them!
step one
Make blueberry mixture. Combine 1 cup of the yogurt, the blueberries, 1/2 cup of the almond milk, and 1 tablespoon of the honey in a blender and blend until smooth.
step two
Freeze first layer. Fill a popsicle mold one-third of the way full with the blueberry mixture. I made 10 popsicles, if your molds are smaller or larger you may make more or less than 10. Put the mold in the freezer and let freeze for 1 hour. Place the remaining blueberry mixture in a liquid measuring cup and keep cold in the refrigerator. Wash the blender and set aside to dry.
step three
Make peach mixture. Combine remaining yogurt, peaches, almond milk, and honey in a blender and blend until smooth.
step four
Freeze second layer. Evenly distribute the peach mixture between the popsicle molds. You will use all the peach mixture. Insert the popsicle sticks and freeze for another hour.
step five
Finish popsicles. Give reserved blueberry mixture a stir then top the molds with the remaining layer of blueberry. Freeze until completely frozen, at least 4 hours. The layering doesn’t have to be an exact science, just do your best to get the layers even.
step six
Remove. Run popsicle molds under warm water to loosen and remove. I tend to remove them all at once and lay on a parchment-lined baking sheet then freeze again until hard. If you can’t wait that long, enjoy immediately!

Yogurt Popsicle FAQ’s
What’s the best yogurt to use? I used low-fat vanilla Greek yogurt but really any yogurt will work. The higher the fat content in the yogurt, the creamier they will be.
Which popsicle mold is best? This is my favorite popsicle mold. I like it because it is easy to pour the yogurt mixture in layers after you’ve inserted the popsicle stick into the second layer.
I don’t have a popsicle mold, can I still make them? Yes, the molds I used are 5.75 x 9 x 4 inches so if you have paper cups that are similar to that size, they would work too. Or use smaller paper cups and just make more popsicles.
