Can I reduce the honey?

Keep in mind that the honey does more than just sweeten the popsicles. It also help keep them softer and less icy by reducing ice crystals. So if you cut back on the honey, they'll freeze harder.

Do I need to peel the peaches?

That's totally up to you and how powerful your blender is. I don't peel mine. I just give them a good wash, remove the pit, slice them up and let my Vitamix blend them up into a smooth mixture.

Can I use frozen peaches?

Absolutely! Just let them thaw first so they blend up easily into a smooth, pourable mixture.

How long do they take to freeze?

Plan on at least 4 to 6 hours but I usually just let them freeze overnight. The exact time will depend on your freezer and the size of your popsicle molds.

How long do they keep?

These homemade popsicles keep well in the freezer for 1 to 2 months, although they’re at their best during the first few weeks. You can store them right in the popsicle mold or remove them and wrap each one tightly in plastic wrap before storing in a freezer bag or freezer safe container. Just work quickly so they don’t start melting while you’re wrapping them!

Notes

Peaches: Ripe, juicy peaches will give you the sweetest, best flavor. There’s no need to peel them if you’re using a powerful blender. I just give them a good wash, remove the pit, slice them up and let my Vitamix blend them up into a smooth mixture. If you are using frozen peach slices, make sure to let them thaw first so they blend up easily into a smooth, pourable mixture.
My favorite popsicle mold: I’ve had this stainless steel popsicle mold for many years and I absolutely love it! It’s super durable, makes those beautiful classic-style popsicles you see in all my popsicle recipes and the popsicles slide right out after just a few seconds under warm water. I also love that each popsicle has its own individual mold instead of being connected in one big tray.
