Berry Milk Pops

Happy Fourth of July! Here is a frozen treat easy to make with kids and on the healthy side too! Blueberries and diced strawberries are combined and covered with sweetened milk, then placed in the freezer until solid.

I kept the honey at 1 tablespoon for Evan. Chad would have liked them a little sweeter. Taste the milk mixture and increase the honey as needed.

This made enough for 8 popsicles using my mold (Zoku Classic Pop Molds, 6 with drip guards). The berries and milk mixture will yield closer to 10 popsicles for those using smaller molds (3 ounces) or paper cups.

In a small bowl, toss together the blueberries and diced strawberries. Divide the combined berries among the popsicle molds.

In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, honey, and vanilla extract. Pour over the berries in the popsicle mold to the fill line. Insert popsicle holders.
