    These easy lemon popsicles require only three ingredients. They are refreshing and full of flavor - the perfect summer treat!

    These lemon popsicles are such a treat! Easy to make, cheap, and ready in about 5 minutes, without counting the freezing time. And the best of it: one popsicle only has about 80 calories!

    And if you are into making popsicles or ice cream this summer, have a look at these Greek Yogurt Popsicles or this No-Churn Ice Strawberry Cream with strawberries or peanut butter. All so easy to make and so delicious!

    What do you need for making lemon pops?

    Popsicle molds (the Amazon link opens in a new tab).

    Otherwise, just 3 ingredients: Creamy Greek-style lemon yogurt โ€“ I use low-fat, lemon, and honey.

    Optional: a few drops of yellow food coloring. The pops taste the same (great!) with or without the color.

    Alternative sweeteners, everything to taste: Regular sugar, golden syrup, agave syrup, stevia, erythritol, or xylitol.

    Tips

    • You can use plain Greek yogurt to make the lemon popsicles; however, I prefer creamy lemon yogurt; it adds more flavor.
    • Use as much honey as needed; it also depends on the sort of yogurt you are using. If the yogurt is plain, you will need more honey; if the yogurt is sweetened, you will need less honey.
    • Make the lemon pops at least one day before you want to serve them. It is best if they have time to freeze overnight.
    • Run the molds under warm water to release the lemon popsicles from the molds.

    Popsicle variations

    • Use other dairy products instead of yogurt. For a richer version, try sour cream or smetana.
    • Vegan alternative: use vegan yogurt and vegan sweetener.
    • Make lime popsicles using the juice of 2-3 limes.
    • Add some Limoncello or lemon vodka for boozy popsicles to taste (not too much).
