Berry 7UP Popsicles from www.hezzi-dsbooksandcooks.com come in at just 35 delicious calories

I really enjoy soda but I don’t like all the calories that comes with it.  That’s why I was excited to see that Safeway is carrying 4 different Ten calorie soft drinks including 7 UP Ten, Sunkist Ten, A&W Ten, and Canada Dry Ten.   Now I can enjoy the sodas I love with same great taste but without all of the calories.
7UP TEN makes delicious popsicles

Since summer is coming I need to start getting ready for swimsuit weather and that means I need to start eating better and living a healthier lifestyle.   That means exercising several times a week, making healthy meals, and choosing healthier snacks.    Choosing and making healthier snacks is the hardest for me.  In the summer I love a good milkshake or ice cream cone but my waistline certainly doesn’t.

While trying to come up with healthier snack items I found the popsicle molds I had bought on clearance at the end of last summer.  That got me thinking.  I checked the refrigerator and found fresh strawberries and raspberries, both of which are part of my healthy eating habits.

Berry 7UP Popsicles

I came up with a quick and delicious ice pop recipe that comes in at just 35 calories.   Yes, you heard that correctly, 35 calories per pop.   I can eat 3 and be just over 100 calories!  I chopped up the strawberries and raspberries, put them in my molds, and then filled the molds with 7 UP Ten!   It not only made a delicious popsicle but a pretty one too!   The fruit pieces are easy to see through the clear soda.   My husband and I have been enjoying these out on our deck and I’m looking forward to trying the Sunkist Ten with citrus fruit slices for my next popsicle!

  1. I love homemade popsicles. I’ve been trying to find a good popsicle mold to buy.

  2. Oh, that looks so good! I don’t have any Popsicle molds, you’d think with two little boys, this would be something I had. I love that this is only 35 calories!
