lime popsicle recipe

To me, warmer weather means getting outside with family. I have two active little girls who want to be outdoors 24/7. No exaggeration. And we want to encourage that, right?

Being outside everyday means that we have to make it priority to stay hydrated. Drinking water and eating plenty of fruit helps.

INGREDIENTS FOR THESE LIMEADE POPSICLES:

• 3 limes, 1 sliced, 2 squeezed for juice
• 2 cups, water
• ½ cup, simple syrup

DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING THESE LIMEADE POPSICLES:

1. Combine water, simple syrup, and lime juice in a large liquid measuring cup.
2. Stir until completely mixed.
3. Pour into popsicle mold.
4. Add slice of lime to each.
5. Freeze until solid. (about 4 hours)
6. Pop out and enjoy!

I always feel better when I’m well-hydrated, and it’s even more important when we’re sweating it out in the summer months. I make it a priority to keep water around and serve hydrating snacks.

Although I always have my water bottle at the ready, my kids are less likely to stop for regular water breaks. The solution? This refreshing limeade popsicle recipe.

SO simple to make, it barely requires a recipe. Literally simple syrup & lime-infused water. Still… oh so good and most definitely kid-approved.

Combine simple syrup (store-bought or homemade), water, and lime juice; then pour into a popsicle mold. I like to add a slice of lime to mine as well. They’ll freeze up in about 4 hours.

HANDY TOOLS TO MAKE THIS RECIPE EVEN EASIER:

• popsicle molds – durable, easy to store, easy to clean
• measuring cup – pour spout, easy clean, good size for mixing 

When we’re outside, I like to take snack breaks with the kids and pass around some popsicles. Gives everyone a chance to cool off.
