1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Blueberry Purée:

12 ounces fresh blueberries (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

Preparation

  1. For strawberry purée

    Step 1

    Purée all ingredients and 1/4 cup water in a food processor until smooth. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a small pitcher; strain, pressing on solids to extract about 1 1/4 cups purée. Set aside.

  2. For blueberry purée:

    Pour 1 tablespoon strawberry purée into each mold; freeze until just firm, about 30 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon blueberry purée to each mold. Freeze until just firm, about 30 minutes. Repeat until molds are filled. Cover; insert ice-pop sticks. Freeze until firm. Dip bottoms of molds into hot water for 20-30 seconds to loosen pops. Remove pops from molds; serve.
