Have you always been scared to make your own popsicles at home? Looking for frozen treats that aren’t too hard? This is the perfect recipe!
With only a handful of low sugar ingredients, you will be thrilled once you make this recipe.
When shopping for sugar-free frozen treats in the store, they almost always contain artificial ingredients. Fruit pops at home are the way to go because you have direct control of the ingredients you add.
You will use sweetener in this recipe, but it is completely refined-sugar free.
Ingredients For the Recipe
- Fresh squeezed lemon juice
- Fresh or frozen strawberries
- Water
- Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener
- Popsicle Mold
- Lemon Squeezer
- Blender
How to Make Homemade Sugar-Free Popsicles
- Squeeze the juice from the lemons into a blender.
- Add in the strawberries, water, and powdered organic monkfruit sweetener. Blend.
- Pour the blended mix into the popsicle molds.
- Freeze for 4 hours.
What Sweetener to Use
I recommend powdered organic monkfruit sweetener. It has zero calories and carbs. If you use granular sweetener you will notice a grainy difference in texture.
How Many Calories and Carbs?
Each popsicle has 17 calories and 3 net carbs.
Substitution Tips and Flavor Ideas
- Blueberries
- Raspberries
- BlackBerries
- Fresh Squeezed Oranges
How to Store the Popsicles
Store the popsicles in the freezer. This Popsicle Mold from Amazon is great to use to store them in when they are finished, too. You can also remove them from the mold (once frozen) and move them to sealable bags.
How Long Will the Popsicles Last?
Popsicles usually last 6-8 months in the freezer.

Notes
- 1/2 cup of sweetener will result in popsicles that taste similar to strawberry lemonade. The flavor is mild and you can still taste the lemon. For sweeter popsicles add additional sweetener, perhaps 3/4 a cup.
- Depending on what mold you use, you may have enough blended mix for up to 12 popsicles, which would lower the macros!
- If you use granular sweetener you will notice a grainy difference in texture. Powdered is recommended.

I started making these a couple weeks ago and have made several batches so far. The second batch was made with both lemon and grapefruit juice (not enough lemons). They are a very tasty and very welcome change from sugar-free jello. Found a recipe for Keto Lime Popsicles and those turned out great as well. Have reduced the sweetener to 1/3 cup plus a tablespoon. Still very sweet. I made a batch early this week and didn't have the full pound of strawberries. Added one nectarine (peeled) and it's very good. I know the calorie and carb counts will change for this one, but may still be acceptable for most. Great recipe!

I’ve been looking for a low carb popsicle recipe and this. is. it. I had to add some other frozen fruits because I didn’t have enough strawberries, still so good! It’s really well balanced with the sweetener (my first time trying monk fruit sweetener) and I look forward to the warm days ahead enjoying these guilt free!

Made these popsicles with my sons, we added blueberries, and it was an absolute hit! I love that I know exactly what my kids are digesting (no preservatives or unnecessary added sugars).
It’s getting warmer in the DMV and it feels good to have an easy and healthy recipe that I can make for/with my kids.
