My homemade ice pops feature Young Living's NingXia Red. NingXia Red is a supplement drink featuring the super fruit wolfberries, giving it its signature red color, and includes blueberries, cherries, plums, and pomegranate juices and extracts. It's loaded with antioxidants and citrus essential oils to support overall health and energy. It's so powerful, a recommended serving is only 1-2 ounces! Each ounce, btw, only has 20 calories and 2 grams of sugar. It is a great way to introduce ingestion of essential oils to kids, and so is this recipe:
- 1 singles-serving size cup of vanilla yogurt (they make them a weird size now... like 5.something oz, so I re-use that empty cup to get equal parts, and save on a dish!)
- 1 of the same "cups" of NingXia Red
- 1 of the same "cups" frozen strawberries
- 2-4 drops of Lime Vitality Oil (optional)
Pour in to molds (try to avoid plastic if you can! Plastic and citrus oils don't get along!)
Freeze and eat!
The yogurt keeps it a creamier texture, more like a sorbet and it's so refreshing! It's a bit more hearty than your typical water-based pop. Serve it to your kids for breakfast! They will love you for it!
You can, of course, substitute out the strawberries for a different frozen fruit you like, and same for the Vitality oil. You can also adjust the size of your batch to accommodate the number of molds you have. The important thing is equal parts.
You can actually get an ice pop set with NingXia and silicone molds from Young Living (safe for citrus oils!) here! Want to get it wholesale? Check out this page!
Don't wanna go for pops? Put in single-serving dishes, or a big bowl, and freeze that way. Mine got a bit more hard going that route, but still just as yummy! A grapefruit spoon was perfect for my larger bowl.
UPDATE! We made this with frozen peaches and lemon Vitality oil and it's SO good! Light and refreshing!
