Thank you to the U.S. Highbush Blueberry Council for sponsoring this post! As always, all blueberry-loving opinions are 100% my own.

In the middle of August, it gets pretty hot and humid in South Florida. I’m not a huge fan of extreme heat and on most days, I tend to go from my air conditioned home to my air conditioned car to my air conditioned job!

But then there are the days when it’s unavoidable spending long hours outdoors in the sun. On hot days like that, there are few things more tempting than a refreshing, ice-cold drink or frozen treat. Some of my favorites are my Blueberry Mint Limeade, Watermelon Agua Fresca and Blueberry Granita with Coconut Whipped Cream.

And now I'm so excited to share my 4 Ingredient Blueberry Yogurt Popsicles with you. They’re a little sweet and a little tart, creamy, and absolutely delicious. They're the perfect tasty treats to cool down with.

The stars of these popsicles are the beautiful blueberries. Their anthocyanin content gives them a lovely blue color that infuses the popsicles with a beautiful pattern.

Fresh or Frozen Blueberries?

You can use either fresh or frozen blueberries in these popsicles! I always keep a container of blueberries in my fridge and another in my freezer. They’re a great way to indulge your sweet tooth and get a boost of nutrition.

Frozen blueberries actually contain the same vitamins and minerals as fresh blueberries because they’re quick-frozen at the peak of ripeness. At only 80 calories per cup, blueberries are an excellent source of vitamin C and a good source of fiber too, which helps keep you feeling full and satisfied.

How to Make These Popsicles

First, simmer the blueberries in a saucepan with a touch of honey until they start to burst and release their juices.
Then stir the blueberries into a mixture of vanilla yogurt and milk. I like to use either whole milk yogurt or reduced fat yogurt rather than nonfat yogurt in this dish because the fat content makes the popsicles creamy and helps prevent them from getting too icy.
Then gently stir the blueberry mixture into the yogurt. If you want the popsicles to have a lovely swirly pattern, don't over-stir the mixture. If you get too enthusiastic, the popsicles will turn purple (but if that happens, don’t worry- they’ll still taste great).
Finally, pour the mixture into popsicle molds, freeze and you’re done. The hardest part is waiting for the popsicles to freeze so that you can try one! A lot of people have asked me about the popsicle molds that I use. These are the popsicles molds that I have- I like the classic, simple look. But you can really use any mold or even paper cups.

So sit back, relax, put your feet up and enjoy the last few weeks of summer with one of these refreshing popsicles. Creamy and sweet with a delightful tanginess- summer never tasted better!

Equipment

▢
Popsicle molds

Ingredients

▢ 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries
▢ 1 ½ tablespoons honey
▢ 2 ½ cups vanilla yogurt, whole milk or reduced fat
▢ 4-6 tablespoons milk

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Heat the blueberries and honey together in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer several minutes until the blueberries start to burst and release their juices. Mash them a little with a fork leaving some berries whole. Remove from heat and cool.
Whisk the yogurt and milk together in a bowl. Use just enough milk to thin the yogurt out to a pourable consistency.
Gently fold the cooled blueberry mixture into the yogurt. To retain a swirly pattern, do not mix it too much (otherwise it will turn purple).
Pour the mixture into popsicle molds. Place popsicle sticks into the molds, cover, and freeze for a few hours or overnight until solid. Alternatively, if you don’t have popsicle molds, you can use small paper cups.
To unmold, dip the popsicle molds in warm water and then pull the popsicles out.
