Popsicles for Sore Throats

These Popsicles for Sore Throats are homemade and so easy to make with only 5 ingredients. The ingredients are all natural and will soothe your throat and hopefully get you feeling your best again soon. Plus, only 5 minutes of prep time!

I've been fighting a cold this week with a really bad sore throat. The kind that makes you feel like the Grinch when he eats glass in the movie.

I've been on repeat between these ice pops, Dutch Oven Chicken Noodle Soup and Pastina Soup, and I'm starting to feel so much better.

These Sore Throat Popsicles are a combination of fruit, honey, coconut water, and fresh grated ginger for a seriously healing (and very cold) experience. They're also super healthy with lots of nutrition.

Ingredients:

Frozen Mango: An immunity boosting fruit with Vitamin A, B, C & more. I prefer using frozen mango because it's fully ripe and it blends better without producing a lot of strands in the mixture.

Frozen Pineapple: High in vitamin C for immunity and B vitamins, which are good for brain function and having energy. I prefer frozen for less strands, like the mango, and for quicker prep time.

Ginger: The list of benefits are amazing for this spice. Some of the major ones include reducing nausea and killing off germs in the body. Ginger is strong, so make sure to really finely grate it.

Honey: Honey soothes the throat and helps with coughing. *Remember babies under 1 year old cannot have honey.

Coconut Water: Hydrating and packed with nutrients and electrolytes. I love the Vita Coco brand.

Popsicle Mold: Any popsicle mold works great for this recipe. It will fill 6 to 8 ice pops depending on the size of the mold.

*A list of the full ingredients and quantities can be found in the recipe card below.

Substitutions:

• Ginger has a strong flavor that you can taste in this recipe. If you know the kids won't like it, you can leave it out.
• For a more fruit packed taste, the coconut water can be substituted with orange juice.

How to Make Sore Throat Popsicles:

Expert Tips:

• Grate the ginger really fine on a microplane zester to avoid large chunks.
• Freeze overnight for best texture.
• If the ice pops won't come out of the mold, run a little warm water over the mold portion to help them break free.
