hello! this is a really, really(!) exciting post for two very great reasons.
reason number 1: I get to share this super simple & festive recipe for red white and blue pops with you! yum!!
reason number 2: I am officially launching this blog. yup, nyssa’s kitchen is going live and I couldn’t be more thrilled to have you join me on this culinary journey. it’s going to be so good! thank you for showing up to the party!
i hope that you’ll become a part of this adventure with me & check back regularly to help me grow this endeavor into the inspirational and educational thing that I have dreamt of 🙂
now on to reason number 1! these yummy red white & blue pops that will be a perfect (and gorgeous!) addition to your 4th of July menu.
they’re simple easy-to-make and take advantage of the abundance of fresh berries that are currently calling to me every time I visit the market or store.
i originally found them on this site by Beth Kellmer, and they are such a hit. she has a beautiful style and I highly encourage you to check out her website!
there’s not much more to say here other than i hope you enjoy these as much as we have. and, happy holiday weekend-ing! and of course, THANK YOU!! for being here for the official nyssa’s kitchen blog launch.
I am so happy you’re here.
Printred white & blue pops
- Total Time: 10 minutes
- Yield: 10 pops 1x
Description
a tasty, festive yogurt pop that showcases seasonal berries, or whatever fruit is in season!
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups whole fat* yogurt of choice (I used plain yogurt with 2 teaspoons coconut extract added, and 5 tbs simple syrup to sweeten, but you could use whatever flavor/sweetness level that suits you)
- 1 pint fresh raspberries
- 1 pint fresh blueberries
- 4 tbs sugar
- popsicle molds
Instructions
- fix your yogurt however you like, if you’re using already sweetened vanilla or something of that sort then there’s no fixing to do other than to measure! put into a ziploc bag
- put your berries in separate ziploc bags with 2 tbs sugar in each bag. smash some so they macerate and break down. although it’s not necessary you may want to let them
- sit for about 30 minutes before you move on to the next step.
- cut a small corner off each ziploc.
- start by putting a little yogurt in each mold, then alternate with raspberries, blueberries and more yogurt.
- once they’re full, freeze for at least 8 hours, but preferably overnight.
- Prep Time: 10 mins
Notes:
* I highly recommend using whole fat yogurt here for the creaminess factor. I’ve made them both ways and the full fat batch was much better!
