Kiwi Popsicles + GIVEAWAY!!!
The weather has been so hot and humid here in NC which means we’ve been going through a lot of popsicles in my house. To save money, Isaac and I have been making most of them and having a blast trying out different flavor combinations.
We always go back to our favorite quick and easy kiwi popsicles. I posted the recipe for these 2-ingredient popsicles last year and we’ve been eating them non-stop.
I love that they are made simply from fresh kiwi and pineapple juice but I wanted to add a more complex flavor to them. The pineapple juice adds a sweet and tart kick that compliments the kiwi well. This inspired me to use Simply Lemonade® with Blueberry in place of the pineapple juice to add a new twist yet keep that tartness that we love. Let me just say we nailed it!!
Simply Lemonade® with Blueberry has a balanced blend of sweetness and tartness with the perfect hint of blueberry.
If you’ve never tried Simply juices then OMG!! I’ve raved about my addiction to these juices on my fan page and was so excited when Simply asked me to create a blog post and host a giveaway for my readers.
These juices are a staple in my house that we buy on a weekly basis. We all have our favorite flavors. My hubby gets the Simply Orange with Pineapple, Isaac gets the Simply Apple and I always get the new Simply Lemonade® with Blueberry.
Making these popsicles are just as easy as the kiwi popsicles with only 3 ingredients: Simply Lemonade® with Blueberry, fresh blueberries and fresh kiwi.
Step 1. ) In a blender add 2/3 cups of blueberries and 2 diced kiwi.
Step 2 .) Pour in 1 1/2 cups of Simply Lemonade® with Blueberry .
Step 3 .) Blend until until smooth.
Step 4. ) Pour into popsicles mold and freeze for 4 hours. When ready to serve run popsicle mold briefly under warm water.
And here are our made over kiwi popsicles! The Simply Lemonade® with Blueberry added such a refreshing twist to these popsicles. I can’t wait to see what kind of flavor combination we can create with the other new Simply flavors, Simply Orange® with Tangerine and Simply Orange® with Banana.
We also made freeze pops!

I love a nice sweet butter on top of muffins or my homemade waffles. I would make a Simply orange butter spread to add a nice citrus kick to my muffins. By adding Simply orange with soften butter, add some zest of an orange and voila!! You have a new sweet treat to enjoy with your muffins, bagels,pretty much anything you want.
I have to say that Simpy makes Great products they are just simply delicious! When making one of my favorite recipes, the Simply juice I would choose would have to be the Simply Lemonade with Raspberry!
I would use the Simply Lemonade with Blueberry in my fruit smoothie.
I use simply orange in many of my Chinese inspired meals: orange chicken, teriyaki, and bourbon.
Simply orange with banana and strawberry smoothie!! <3
I would love to try the Simply Lemonade with Mango or the Simply Lemonade with Blueberry in my summer tropical smoothies and my home-made fruit sorbets. Also, autumn is slow coming around the corner, so I think I’ll try the Simply Apple in my home-made Apple Cinnamon Ice Cream and my Apple Cider for the fall season. Mmm just thinking about it makes my mouth water!
