These frozen pops take just a few minutes to make and work with any ripe, luscious fruit. I named this recipe for the way my son, Owen, spelled “strawberry” when he helped me develop the recipe. I’m a fan of the pre-frozen pop molds made by Zoku; keep them in the freezer and they’re ready to make fully formed ice pops in 7 to 9 minutes! I’ve suggested several mix-ins to further boost the pops’ nutritional benefits. — Shari Koolik Leidich, author of Two Moms in the Raw: Simple, Clean, Irresistible Recipes for Your Family's Health.
