Strawberry Orange Sunrise Popsicles Paleo Vegan Recipes

ORANGE STRAWBERRY SUNRISE POPSICLES

Steps:

• Start by juicing the oranges using a citrus juicer, pour the juice into a jug and set aside.
• Add the strawberries, water, and maple syrup into a high-speed blender and blend on high until smooth.
• First, pour the orange juice evenly into each popsicle mold (about 1/2-3/4 full). Then, using a spoon, add the strawberry mixture into each mold.
• You can carefully move the strawberry mixture around a little in the molds with a spoon so that the popsicles have more of a gradient look.
• Place into the freezer and freezer for at least 1 hours before inserting the popsicle sticks into each mold to help them stay straight.
• Freeze for at least 12 hours.
• To take them out, run hot water over the molds briefly and they should be easy to pull out.
• Store in the freezer in small reclosable plastic bags.

STRAWBERRY ORANGE SUNRISE POPSICLES (PALEO + VEGAN)

Steps:

• In a blender, puree strawberries until smooth. Taste the mixture and sweeten with 1-2 Tbsp. syrup, honey, or agave, if needed
• Divide the strawberry mixture between your popsicle molds (mine holds 10 pops). Tap the popsicle mold on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles and to help the puree settle.
• Add about 1″ orange juice on top of the strawberry puree in each popsicle mold. Use a straw, drink stirrer or popsicle stick to gently swirl the orange juice into the top of the strawberry mixture. (This will help you create a gradient of color)
• Pour the rest of the orange juice into the popsicle molds.
• Insert sticks & cover with a lid if you can*
• Freeze 3-4 hours or until completely solid.
• To remove pops from the mold, run the outside of the mold under cold water for a few seconds, then jiggle the sticks side to side to loosen the pops. (Run the mold under water again if they're still not loosening.)
