What is summer without popsicles! These have a great lime flavor and a nice creamy texture thanks to the avocado, but they do not have a strong avocado flavor. (Your kids won’t even know it is in there!) I originally got a version of this recipe from my sister, and although they were very good, I wanted to cut down on the sugar from the original recipe. I added grapes for some sweetness, and cut way back on the sugar. I also threw in a small handful of spinach to make them a nice color! Don’t worry, you won’t be able to taste the spinach either! I used a high speed blender to make these, but I think any blender or food processor will work.
