These Vegan Strawberries and Cream Popsicles are a healthy way to cool off! No special equipment required!
After making Mango Key Lime Coconut Popsicles, I got the popsicle bug and had to make some more. These Vegan Strawberries and Cream Popsicles came about as many recipes do, a need to use up an ingredient. In this case it was strawberries.
I swear they start to turn the minute I take them out of the store. I mostly use them in my morning smoothies, but it seems like I can never use them up fast enough. That's why I prefer frozen fruit for smoothies. I can use them at my own pace.
The temps. have been in the 100's here in Tucson. The breeze feels like a car heater blowing on full blast. Needless to say, I have traded in my walking shoes for my yoga mat. It is a much better workout anyway, one that I have been meaning to get back into on a daily basis.
Yoga is my favorite way to work out, one that I prefer to do first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach. Although I have to say, I do like my daily walk for clearing my head and thinking about recipes for the blog.
Since it has been so hot, it's nice to have a cool treat to cool off.
No Special Equipment Required
Just like my Mango Key Lime Coconut Popsicles, you won't need popsicle molds for these. I had some popsicle molds many years ago, but got rid of them because I never used them. Now that I am a food blogger, I regret that decision.
I plan to continue making popsicles in 3 ounce bath cups until I either use them up, or see how much I eat popsicles. I don't know if popsicle molds are really worth purchasing. I mean, do I really need more kitchen tools filling up my cupboards?
Versatile
Not only are these kid-friendly treats, but they can be added to smoothies or turned into a cocktail. That's what I did with my Mango Key Lime Coconut Popsicles. They tasted great with a splash of rum. Now that's my kind of treat!

Vegan Strawberries and Cream Popsicles
Ingredients
- 13.5 ounces full fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped strawberries
Instructions
- Pulse all ingredients in a Nutribullet or food processor to leave strawberries a little chunky, or mix well to purée.

So easy! Must admit I added maple syrup and extra strawberry juice for sweetness. (I used thawed berries.) Popsicles are in the freezer now! You have a 9-year-old's approval!
Willow Moon says
That's great! I don't have a big sweet tooth and my strawberries were sweet to begin with, but I could see where you would want to add sweetener.

These look delicious! I've made a mango version very similar to your recipe because my 5 year old is dairy-free. I'll have to give your strawberry version a try!
Willow Moon says
I did some mango and coconut popsicles also, but I included key lime juice!

I always find some of my best recipes come from needing to use up an ingredient! These look so tasty! I live in Phoenix, so totally feel your pain with that "warm breeze!" Ugh! Can't wait til it's over 😉
Willow Moon says
It's funny, I always make some of my best recipes by trying to use up an ingredient or using pantry staples because I am too lazy to go shopping! I am counting the days until Fall, but at least we don't have below degree temps.!
