Notes
For an extra smooth texture, strain the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring into molds. Adjust honey sweetness based on the ripeness of your strawberries. A pinch of salt can enhance the overall flavor profile. Consider adding a splash of vanilla extract or a tiny bit of orange zest for complexity. Greek yogurt yields a creamier pop.
