Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh spinach (washed thoroughly)
  • 1 ripe banana (peeled)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1–2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Wash the spinach thoroughly and peel the banana. Prepare any additional fruits or herbs if using, to ensure everything blends smoothly.
  2. Blend the Base: Combine spinach, banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, lime juice, and chia seeds in a blender. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, with no chunks of greens remaining.
  3. Taste and Adjust: Taste the mixture and add more sweetener if desired or a little extra lime juice for tanginess to achieve your perfect flavor balance.
  4. Pour into Molds: Pour the blended smoothie mixture into popsicle molds, leaving some space at the top for expansion. Insert sticks and level the tops to avoid leakage or uneven freezing.
  5. Freeze Until Solid: Place the molds in the freezer for at least 4 to 6 hours or overnight until the popsicles are completely frozen and solid.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients for the brightest flavor and color.
  • Blend until very smooth to avoid icy or crunchy textures.
  • Add citrus juice (lime or lemon) at the end to prevent bitterness.
  • Do not overfill molds; leave space for expansion during freezing.
  • Run molds under warm water for a few seconds to release popsicles easily without breaking.
