The summer has arrived and you need to keep your head and body cool, and what better way to do that than by eating lots of popsicles?! My body can’t handle dairy very well so I like to make popsicles with water or coconut instead.
I’ve made lots of variations of these popsicles this spring, but I finally found the right amount of ingredients and now I’m sharing them with you! It’s easy, it’s quick and they are healthy, enjoy!

Add the coconut milk and strawberries to a blender, and blend until it's a smooth mixture.

Take the pan off the stove and set aside for 30 minutes to let the flavors mix.
