Strawberry Mojito Frozen Yogurt Popsicles

I adore relaxing on a Friday evening on the balcony, watching the sun sink into the horizon with a strawberry mojito cocktail in my hand. Do you know what’s even better and more refreshing than a strawberry mojito cocktail? A Strawberry Mojito Frozen Yogurt Popsicle.


Oh yeah. I went there.


You can easily make alcohol-free versions of these popsicles if you want. Simply follow the recipe but omit the white rum – they’ll turn out almost exactly the same.


Recipe makes around 6 small popsicles, but you can easily decrease or increase the recipe according to your preferences.


Strawberry Mojito Frozen Yogurt Popsicles
Ingredients
1 cup Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons white rum
1 tablespoon lime juice
4 tablespoons + 6 teaspoons powdered sugar
1/4 cup + 6 teaspoons chopped strawberries
1 tablespoon strawberry syrup (from frozen strawberries)
3 teaspoons finely chopped mint


Recipe
1. Mix together 6tsp chopped strawberries and 6tsp powdered sugar. Divide the mix into 6 small popsicle molds and squish it into the bottom.

2. Beat the yogurt, white rum, lime juice and remaining powdered sugar together.

3. Stir in the remaining strawberries, strawberry syrup and mint.

4. Pour into the popsicle molds and insert a popsicle stick into the centre.

5. Freeze for at least 3 hours.

Lemon Cheesecake Popsicles

We're well into July and I still can't get over spring-themed lemon recipes. Summer berries are great, but they just don't do it for me - unless they're dropped into a fancy cocktail. 


With most places suffering through temperatures of 100F+, frozen desserts are definitely the way forward. These Lemon Cheesecake Popsicles take less than 5 minutes to whip together and are ready to eat after around an hour in the freezer - the perfect dessert to make on a scorching summer's day.

I made one big popsicle, but you could easily divide the mixture into several smaller ones for sharing.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons lemon curd - try one of these recipes
1/2 cup Greek yoghurt
2 tablespoons cream cheese - light or ordinary
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
2 tablespoons melted white chocolate, cooled
2 tablespoons crushed cookie crumbs

Recipe
1. Dollop the lemon curd in the bottom of your popsicle mould.

2. Beat together the Greek yoghurt, cream cheese, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla essence. Spoon ontop of the lemon curd

3. Pour the white chocolate on top and sprinkle with crushed cookie crumbs.

Enjoy a simple healthy dessert on your own or - if you're feeling generous enough - share with someone else.
