[Recipe] Cherry Lime Probiotic Popsicles for Under 30 Calories Each

Cherry Lime Probiotic Popsicles for Under 30 Calories Each

These popsicles from Sylvie at GourmandeInTheKitchen are refreshing, tangy, delicious, good for your gut, less than 30 calories each and take such little effort they are made in minutes. That said, they do require a little prep beforehand (by way of making coconut water kefir).

Making kefir is really simple to do and we’ve put a couple of links at the end. One is an article, the other a video, so choose whichever matches your learning style.

I thought to put off making the popsicles until we had family (with children) visiting. However I decided there really was no need to wait. It’s so beautifully warm out that one of these delicious (and extremely healthy – but don’t let that put you off, lol!) popsicles would go down a treat right about now!

Sylvie tells us about her popsicles …

 

These particular popsicles combine the sweetness of fresh cherries with the tartness of limes to create an ultra-refreshing sweet/tart treat with a vivid red hue. They’re quick to make (the only effort is in squeezing and zesting the limes), and bright with lip-smacking fruity flavor.

 

And unlike those red colored imposters masquerading as cherry popsicles of our youth, these are made with only [4 or] 5 whole food ingredients: cherries, limes, coconut water, coconut water kefir and a touch of [raw honey].


Recipe: Cherry Lime Probiotic Popsicles for Under 30 Calories Each

Serves 10, depending on the size of your molds

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup/120ml Lime Juice (about 3-4 fresh limes, at room temperature)

  • Zest of 1 Lime

  • 8oz/225g Cherries, fresh or frozen

  • 1 cup/240ml Coconut Water

  • 1 cup/ 240ml Coconut Water Kefir

  • Optional: 2 Tbs/30ml raw Honey, if additional sweetness is required

Blend until smooth, pour into popsicle molds (or ice cube trays) and freeze.
Enjoy on a warm summer day :-)

 

My Molds are a Different Size, So How Many Calories in my Popsicles?

The whole recipe contains approximately 275 calories. So if your molds are smaller than Sylvie’s (or larger!), simply divide the total number of calories by the number of popsicles you make to get the value of each.

Beyond Pumpkin Spice: Discover Dairy Queen's New Fall Delights

Update New Flavors to Fall For: Dairy Queen's Autumn Delights The arrival of fall typically brings an onslaught of pumpkin spice-flavored everything, but Dairy Queen is shaking up the seasonal trend this year with two new menu items ready to compete for your taste buds. Just in time for Labor Day, this beloved ice cream chain invites you to step away from the common pumpkin spice and dive into innovative flavors with the Caramel Toffee Cookie Blizzard Treat and the Maple Cookie Shake. Discovering the New Fall Menu Favorites Let’s break down DQ’s new offerings. The Maple Cookie Shake is a delightful blending of soft serve and milk mixed with maple cookie crumbles, all topped with whipped cream. It’s a cozy, nostalgic drink that embodies fall without being too sweet. Rich flavors meld together revolving around the essence of maple, not far from caramel, evocative of cool autumn evenings. However, the Caramel Toffee Cookie Blizzard Treat raises some eyebrows. While it sounds perfectly autumnal, the combination of cookie pieces, caramel, and toffee did not seamlessly blend into a cohesive flavor. If only they had included a hint of apple or another quintessential fall flavor, the treat could evoke a deeper sense of the season. Why You Should Try These New Treats Busy individuals often seek quick and enjoyable food options, especially during the fall when activities ramp up. The Maple Cookie Shake stands out not just for its taste but for its portability—perfect for on-the-go professionals, students, and parents. Additionally, its nostalgia is a welcomed sentiment amidst hectic schedules. Meanwhile, the Caramel Toffee Cookie Blizzard can still cater to those who crave a more decadent dessert experience. Pumpkin Spice: Outdated or Timeless? While pumpkin spice might reign supreme every autumn, it’s refreshing to see Dairy Queen challenge its monopoly with more varied flavors. The truth is, many consumers would appreciate greater diversity in seasonal flavors. If you’re someone who often feels fatigued by the same old pumpkin offerings, DQ’s new items might just reignite that autumn joy. Embracing Seasonal Changes Fall symbolizes a shift in weather, lifestyle, and even flavors. It’s a time when busy individuals, including professionals hustling post-summer, can rejuvenate by integrating seasonal delights into their lives. Dairy Queen’s new fall offerings cater to those seeking comfort in food without compromising on novelty. Your Next Move Considering the packed schedules many navigate, Dairy Queen’s tasty solutions offer not only convenience but also enjoyable flavors that step outside of pumpkin spice territory. Even if the Caramel Toffee Blizzard doesn't strike a chord, you’ve got the Maple Cookie Shake gladly waiting to delight you with every sip. Why not treat yourself after a hectic week? You deserve a gustatory escape!
