Refreshing, delicious and healthy - these fruity smoothie ice lollies are just what you need for a hot summer's day.
When the weather is warm I try to always have a batch of homemade ice lollies in the freezer at home.
As a food-loving mum of three, there's nothing better suited to cheering up and cooling down hot and tired kids at the end of the school day.
These ice lollies are also a great use for any leftover smoothie you might have.
Follow the recipe below or simply freeze your favourite smoothie into ice lolly moulds.
Smoothie ice lollies are perfect for babies and kids
These smoothie ice lollies are so simple to make.
Simply combine frozen fruit - banana is great because it's so creamy and berries are good for nutrients and colour - and blend.
They're the perfect refreshing treat for kids for any age on a hot summer's day.
These smoothie popsicles are also great for babies - use smaller lolly moulds for young babies.

Your ice lollies sound delicious Mandy and I like your addition of almond milk. I'm really liking the vacuum function of the Vac2 and it's fun to watch too. As for the noise, I've learnt to put up with it as it generally doesn't last too long.
Mandy Mazliah
Thanks Choclette. I don't really mind the noise but the kids aren't keen x

Why have I never thought of freezing smoothie mix? What a great idea! (Thanks for the link to my post 🙂 )
Mandy Mazliah
You're welcome Cathy! It's an easy way to save smoothie mix that no-one wants to drink. Happens to me a lot!

What a genius idea! Can't believe I haven't seen more frozen smoothie ice lollies (maybe I've just not noticed them before) and the Vac 2 sounds awesome. I love my G2.3, but the Vac 2 sounds even better!! Eb x
Mandy Mazliah
Thanks Eb, I love my G2.3 as well and the Air Vac doesn’t have the little jug which I kind of miss!

Those lollies look a nice treat. I have had my blender for years and it is so useful.
Mandy Mazliah
Thanks Jacqui, I have no idea how I survived for so long without a decent blender!
Jessica Cantoni
What a cool gadget! And those ice lollies look so good. Definitely could have done with one of those last weekend! xx

I love my Optimum 9400 but this new one sounds fantastic, as does your simple and very healthy frozen family treat. Beautiful images, too. Thanks for bigging up my roasted cauliflower alfredo. I'm very flattered! Pinned and scheduled on Tailwind!
Mandy Mazliah
Thanks so much for visiting Kellie, I meant what I said about that alfredo sauce, making it weekly at the moment!

I'm loving our Vac2 too Mandy, It's brilliant how the vauum function makes such long lasting smoothies isn't it as well as all of the other foods it can deal with. Those ice lollies look great too - just what we all could do with on this lovely bank holiday.
