Summertime calls for refreshing treats. So why not stock up the freezer with these Raspberry & Blueberry Frozen Yogurt Pops. A delicious low calorie frozen treat made from just Greek yogurt, berries, a little sugar and a dash of vanilla. And they only have 63 calories per pop! A way to keep cool all summer long.
It’s summer!!! Okay, well maybe for a few days now, but in my book summer starts when the kids finish school. That day was today. I remember being a kid and the last day of school felt like never ending freedom. I am sure everyone can relate to that feeling. So, we are a bunch of happy campers in this house today. Ask me how I feel come mid August and I might be singing a different tune. For today, I am going to bask in the freedom and happiness.
I have been making various popsicles and ice creams lately but never seem to get them photographed to make them onto the blog. This afternoon I got myself a bit more organized and managed to take a few snaps before we ate them. Thankfully! These are really fresh and delicious. I love anything frozen when it is a zillion degrees outside, and if it happens to be healthy, well you can’t argue with that.
Notes About The Raspberry & Blueberry Frozen Yogurt Pops
- I made these frozen pops in a Zoku Quick Pop Maker. It literally takes minutes, I mean like 5 minutes to freeze! It is so easy to use, look after and store. I love it! You can just as easily use the old fashioned Popsicle makers and freeze them in the freezer. But I gotta’ say, I am a little bit is love with this no freeze quick freeze one. Great for impatient people like me!
- I hand chopped the berries and stirred them into the yogurt mixture. If you prefer, you could put all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse for about 30 seconds. It will give you the same texture.
Note: This is not a sponsored post, I simply like the Zoku Quick Pop Maker and all the opinions below are my own.

Raspberry & Blueberry Frozen Yogurt Pops
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 Cup water
- 1 Cup blueberries

- In a large bowl, add the yogurt, water, vanilla and sugar. Mix to combine and stir in chopped berries. Have ready 6 popsicle molds and evenly fill them to the top. Put in freezer until frozen. Depending on temperature of freezer, will take between 6 – 8 hours.
