Homemade probiotic creamsicles are an easy and affordable summer treat. These sugar-free popsicles are packed with fruit and made with a probiotic base for a cool and healthy snack.
It’s Kid-Simple!
Making probiotic creamsicles is so easy that even young children can make them with just the littlest bit of supervision. All that’s required is to put all the ingredients in a blender (affiliate link.) Make a double batch so you can have a smoothie and a creamsicle!
Creamsicle Flavours
Here are a few of my standard flavours. I love experimentation, so if you have a favourite flavour share in the comments section below!
- Berry Blast: A delicious mix of milk kefir and ripe berries.
- Orange Creamsicle: Zest an orange, then peel and de-seed. Use both the zest and the fruit sections mixed with yogurt.
- Almond Fudgesicle: Mix almond milk yogurt with 1 tbsp of cocoa powder and 2 bananas.
- Mango Madness: Make popsicles out of a mango lassi or use 1/2 cup of mango in this recipe.
- Strawberry Tea: Try a mix of strawberries and kombucha. I like to leave a few sliced of strawberry whole in this popsicle.

(affiliate link) because the soft sides make it easy to remove the popsicle.
- For a traditional creamsicle use milk kefir, cultured buttermilk or yogurt. A dairy-free creamsicle can still be probiotic! Use soy yogurt, coconut yogurt or almond yogurt. Kombucha and water kefir make good probiotic popsicles.
