Mango Lassi Popsicles
Mango lassi popsicles are the perfect way to cool down on a hot day. And they’re easy to make, too – just blend some mango, yogurt, and ice cubes together and pour it into popsicle molds. If you’re feeling fancy, you can add a little honey or cardamom for extra flavor. So refreshing!
How to make popsicles
If you can believe it, I had never made homemade ice pops before.
I’ve always wanted to make my own delicious fruit popsicles, but they always seemed like too much work. I’m here to tell you that nothing could be farther from the truth.
Get the right tools
Like everything in life, having the right tools makes everything easier, even homemade popsicles.
I found handy dandy silicone molds that were super easy to use. All you have to do is blend up your favorite fresh fruit and pour it into the popsicle molds, freeze for four hours, and then enjoy delicious homemade fruit popsicles.

The Mold
Finding the perfect mold is essential. I found this silicone ice pop mold (affiliate link) on Amazon. I really liked it because the popsicle came out relatively easily without having to put them in warm water for any length of time.
A few other versions that I have used are the NorPro Popsicle Mold (affiliate link) and the Zoku ice pop molds (affiliate link) which come in regular popsicle shape and all sorts of fun character shapes if you are into that.
I just had a flashback to the old school Tupperware molds that my mom used to have.
There are so many ice pop molds on the market. Just find your favorite one, blend up some healthy fruit and juice or yogurt and make summer even sweeter than it already is.

FAQs and Expert Tips
Adding coconut milk makes the popsicle less icy in texture. An all fruit popsicle has more water in it and therefore has an icier texture. They are both delicious in their own right. It just depends on what you like.

I used frozen mango chunks, omitted the lime and added cardamom. SO good!
Thank you Jennifer for the review! I am so happy that you loved these. The cardamom sounds amazing. I’m going to have to give that a try this summer.
