Very Healthy Fruit Juice Bars

Inspired by Pixie Sevilla Santos's 2009 trip to the HK Food Expo, she made these fruit juice bars by including one of her fave discoveries—guava nectar!

Serves 8 to 10  Prep Time 10 to 15 minutes  Freezing Time overnight

1 cup mango nectar or 1/4 cup mango purée from 4 mangoes
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup plain yogurt
3 cups guava nectar or 1 cup guava purée from 3 to 4 large guavas

1  In a bowl, combine mango nectar with half the honey and half the yogurt mixture. Mix until smooth. Fill the pop molds halfway. Insert the sticks and freeze for at least 3 hours.

2  In a bowl, combine guava nectar with half the honey and half the amount of yogurt. Mix until smooth. Fill the pop molds to the brim. Freeze for at least 6 hours.

3  Remove from freezer; let stand at room temperature for 5 minutes. Remove the pops from the molds. Serve immediately.

Freezing tip If you don’t have ice pop molds, you can use plastic cups too. Pour the ice pop mixture into the cups, cover tightly with foil or plastic wrap then insert the popsicle sticks. Freeze until set.
