Kombucha Popsicles

These easy two-ingredient Kombucha Popsicles are the perfect cool treat on a hot summer day!  (No popsicle mold option!)

What do you do to beat the summer heat?

Do you hide inside with air conditioning?  Do you shun the air conditioner and try to force your body to get used to the heat?

I like both tactics.  But I also like eating all the cold things!

I especially love it when the cold treats are healthy.

Two of my favorite icy treats are creamy kefir ice cream and (you guessed it) kombucha popsicles!

These healthy kombucha popsicles are EASY to make, use two ingredients, and you can even make them without a popsicle mold!

What is Kombucha?

Kombucha is a lightly fermented tea.  You can buy it pre-made at the store, or make homemade kombucha!

If you make it yourself, you'll likely find yourself with so much kombucha.

Do I Need Popsicle Molds?

No-- Although I think that the easiest way to make popsicles is to use a mold.  

I like these popsicle molds.

If you don't have popsicle molds, you can use muffin trays, yogurt cups, or even ice cube trays to make popsicles.

Here's how.

Simply add the fruit first, then pour the kombucha in.  Cover the faux-mold with plastic wrap, and stick a small stick (or popsicle stick, or half a popsicle stick) into the center of the popsicle.

What Flavor Kombucha Should I Use in Popsicles?

I like to use a fruit-flavored kombucha for these popsicles, such as strawberry or cherry kombucha, but have fun with the recipe and experiment with your favorite flavors.
