If you’re looking for the ideal dessert to make for after your meals this summer, look no further. Popsicles are perfect for hot weather, helping refresh you and cool you down while also satisfying your sweet tooth. Whether you’re making them for kids or adults, here are three popsicle recipes that you’ll love this summer.

Peaches and Cream Popsicle

We’ll start with the easiest popsicle recipe. Mix peach-flavored yogurt with thinly sliced peaches. Spoon the mixture into popsicle molds and freeze until they’re set, at least four hours. It’s that simple!

Chia Strawberry and Raspberry Popsicle

Here’s another easy peasy popsicle recipe. All you have to do is combine fresh strawberries and raspberries in a blender with chia seeds, fresh mint, and maple syrup or another sweetener of your choice. Blend and pour into your popsicle molds, freezing until solid. The chia adds a really fun and unique texture to the popsicle.

Pina Colada Popsicle

For a vacation in a popsicle, blend fresh pineapple with pineapple juice, cream of coconut, shredded coconut, lime juice, sugar, and optionally rum if you want this to be more of an adult dessert. Blend, pour into popsicle molds, and freeze until solid.
