From the pool to cocktails, summer is all about soaking up the sun. Even here in Arizona, as a whole, we are outdoor people who love to indulge in all the summer activities. So in honor of this wonderful sunny season, I’ve created superfood popsicles that are perfect for this summer heat.
It’s no secret that Genesis Today offers superb superfoods with quality ingredients. So it was a no-brainer that I would use their products as my secret weapon! For these superfood popsicles, I used Organic Acai, Goji, Mangosteen, and Total Nutrition. These products not only taste great but reap awesome health benefits as well.
To start, all you need is a popsicle mold. You can find these on Amazon or grab some cheapies at the Dollar Store, whatever works. With these superfood popsicles, you have the ability to make them as icy or as creamy as you would like. If you like icy popsicles then you can just use coconut or mineral water. Like your popsicles a little more creamy? Grab some almond milk. If you want ice cream on a stick then pick up a couple containers of your favorite yogurt.
Now grab your superfoods. All you have to do from here is mix together 1 ounce of superfood with 1/2 cup of your chosen base. Blend the ingredients well then pour them in the molds. Secure the tops or sticks well and pop in the freezer for an hour.
Once frozen, dip the mold into warm water for roughly 20 seconds. From here let them stand for a few seconds then gently try to release them from the mold. If it is a struggle to get them out still then repeat dip again so that you don’t break the stick or handle off. Last but not least, enjoy your popsicle goodness knowing that you are eating up awesome superfoods to fuel your body.
Also, don’t forget! From now until September 10th, using the code SUPERSUMMER will get you a whopping 20% off anything online. That’s a steal!

Those sound super yummy! What a great, healthy way to cool off in the summer time. I need to try these.
This is the perfect snack on a hot summer day! I like that it’s a healthy alternative to store-bought popsicles. Also, adding almond milk to make it creamy is an excellent idea.
I absolutely love this idea! I’m always trying to find a way to be healthy but also feed my sweet tooth at the same time LOL! I am totally doing this!
I like Acai it is very tasty and supposed to be very healthy for you. What a great way to cool off!
What a healthy alternative to the usual summer treats. I need to try my hand at making something like this.
This is great! I’m on a popcicle kick right now. Should try to be healthy about it! Thanks for the idea!

This is a great idea. I have never made my own posicles. What a fun and sneaky way to get in some extra vitamins. I bet my granddaughter would love these.
Popsicles are a fabulous way to celebrate summer. I love superfoods that also taste great, This is a recipe that I have to try this summer.
These look and sound fantastic. We love making our own popsicles, I can’t seem to keep them in the freezer though my kids eat them up as fast as they are ready it seems. Would love to give these a try!
What an awesome way to cool off and get some important nutrition! I’m liking the idea of adding almond milk or yogurt!
What a great way to keep cool and get in some superfoods. This is an awesome idea, I am going to make some of these pops!
These Superfood popsicles sound like great healthy popicles for sure. I didn’t think about adding almond milk to make them creamy. This is something I am going to have to try for sure. Thanks for sharing the ideas.
My boys and I absolutely love to make our own popsicles, especially since it is so hot and humid in Chicago. What a great idea to include such super and healthy ingredients.
We had something similar when we were younger. We always enjoyed playing with the different flavors.
Great idea including superfoods in popsicles! I love tehm especially in the summer. As kids we would always hoard the mango flavored ones!
Yum!! These look like a lot of fun for the summer and even for after school
Gracias for the breakdown of the different ice popsicles. Never really tried to make them, but now with the explanation will try all three kinds!
Omg these Popsicles look so refreshing and yummy! I’m an ice cream hater so Popsicles are his I keep cool all summer long!
