Sugar Free Ice Pops
I woke up early this morning to share this amazing recipe with you! I always make a variety of sugar free popsicles, sugar free push-pops and sugar free ice pops for my boys for when we go on long bike rides.
This idea came to me because I often make my boys a strawberry lemonade to drink which is just lemon juice concentrate, Strawberry-Watermelon stur (click HERE to find Stur) and water (or strawberry-kiwi LaCroix water). I though I should put these in those Ice Pop molds I have in the cupboard! I added a little citric acid which is a natural sour taste enhancer (which I use for my sugar-free Sour Patch candies).
This was Micah’s favorite sugar free ice pop yet!

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
I love getting text updates like this!
Is the citric acid absolutely necessary? Can I leave it out?
You can leave it out.
Great recipe!, I was thinking if you could make a jello ribbon salad recipe with the stur and grass fed gelatin?, my Mom made one that had I think 5 layers of different jello flavors with like a cream cheese or sour cream layer in between all the different jello layers, it was awesome!, it would be great if you could make a low carb sugar free version of it.
Yes! That sounds delicious!
what is the brand of lemon juice concentrate that you use?
I’m not sure. I get it at SAMs club 😉
I wonder if you could comment on giving stevia to children? I always give my toddler stevia, but I just read an article that said the body prepares for the sugar by raising cortisol, insulin levels, etc. with no actual glucose ever arriving. Apparently, this, over time, is damaging? I have also read articles that say it’s harmless. Just wondering on your take. I would love to continue giving it to her without worrying it will damage her long term.
I have not seen this in clients. I have type 1 clients that see no insulin response from stevia.
By boys get stevia in their drinks. 🙂
Great. Good to know. Thank you!
