Berry Yogurt Popsicles

Adapted from The Perfect Scoop, further adapted from Orangette

Be sure to use whole-milk yogurt; if not homemade we adore Stonyfield Organic's Cream Top. These popsicles will not be as smooth, texture-wise, as churned frozen yogurt. They will be a little icy like a popsicle.

Ingredients

• 2 cups plain whole-milk yogurt
• 2 cups fresh or frozen berries
• ¾ cup sugar
• 1 tsp. lemon juice

Preparation

• Combine all ingredients in the jar of a blender & process until smooth.Set a strainer over a bowl (or other vessel) with a pour spout. Press the mixture through the strainer to remove seeds. 
• Divide mixture among your fav popsicle molds. Freeze for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the mixture begins to set; then insert popsicle sticks. Freeze until very hard.
• To serve, briefly run the sides of the mold under tepid water to loosen & gently wiggle the popsicle stick as you lift.

Yield: depends in your molds. I get app. 10 vodka shooter-size pops.
