This recipe is great because you can always experiment with different ingredients. If you don’t like using sugar, you can use honey, agave, or maple syrup as alternative sweeteners.

We made popsicles twice and discovered that honey worked really well as a substitute. If you don’t like strawberries, you can always try a different kind of fruit.

Once you find a combination that works, your only job is to sit back and enjoy!
