First of all, let’s just start off by saying if you haven’t made your own popsicles yet…what the HECK are you waiting for?
Second of all.. these Healthy Strawberry Mango Popsicles should be the first popsicle recipe you try.. ok?
Up until approximately a week and a half ago… I didn’t own popsicle molds and didn’t think I really needed them… but I was wrong.
Once it got to be almost 100 degrees the other day, I had an abundance of fruit.. and I thought – it would be SO fun to make a frozen dessert with these.
Click click, $10 and 2 days later (love that Amazon prime) I was the proud owner of popsicle molds and just in time to use up my berries and mango before they got yucky.
These are the popsicle molds I bought!
Let me just tell you – I’ve had more fun making popsicles over the past two weeks than I have had in the kitchen in a long time. They’re fun to make.. fun to eat… taste delicious… what’s not to love?!
These Dairy Free Fudgesicles are also delicious.
My first popsicle creation was these Healthy Strawberry Mango Popsicles, which honestly have been my best creation so far. They were so good that I ate two of them in one sitting the first time…
Not only were they ridiculously easy to make… (literally just blend up mango, sliced strawberries, and freeze) but they are SO delicious.
I think it’s a mental thing, but honestly, it’s just more fun to eat fruit when it’s been blended up and frozen.
Ingredients for Strawberry Mango Popsicles
- mango
- lime juice
- lime zest
- strawberries
- popsicle molds
It will also be helpful to have a citrus juicer, citrus zester and a blender.
You can find substitutions for all of these ingredients below in the green shaded substitutions box.Â
I personally have the world’s biggest sweet tooth, and if it were me – I’d be out getting the world’s largest ice cream cone basically every night of the Summer.
Unfortunately, I know that would not be the best choice for me.. and my stomach would probably not be very happy – so these popsicles are a much better alternative.
They’re refined sugar, dairy, gluten, and grain free – which makes them paleo and vegan.
Regardless…whatever you want to call them – they’re delish, and I think you’ll love them just as much as we did!Â

Substitutions for this popsicle recipe:
These popsicles are pretty versatile. Here are a few ways you can customize them!
- Mango – You can sub in mango for pineapple. Or do 1/2 + 1/2!
- Lime – You can omit the lime juice/zest if you don’t have them on hand
- Strawberries – Sub with any berry you like!
- Collagen – Feel free to add some collagen for extra protein!
These Healthy Strawberry Mango Popsicles deserve to be in your freezer this Summer. They’re perfect for cooling off in mid afternoon, great for a post dinner sweet tooth.. or really just to snack on any time of day!
Next time I make them I’m going to add some collagen peptides in the mango puree for extra protein!

No offense, but don’t waste your fresh mango on popsicles that are goin to be frozen again. Just use frozen mango them microwave it. That’s what I did, and they were great.
Liz Marino says
That’s fine too!
Shelley Scott says
Could you use frozen mango chunks, thawed, instead of fresh mangoes For the mango strawberries popsicles.
Elizabeth Marino says
Sure, that would work!
