Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Strawberries
- 0.5 cup Blueberries
- 1 cup (diced) Mango
- 2 medium (peeled and diced) Kiwi
- 1 cup Pineapple Juice
- 1 cup Orange Juice
Instructions
Wash all the fruits thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Cut the strawberries into small pieces. Dice the mango and kiwi into small cubes.
Divide the diced fruits (strawberries, blueberries, mango, and kiwi) evenly into ice cube trays. Fill each compartment about halfway with the fruit mixture.
Pour pineapple juice into half of the ice cube tray compartments, filling them up to the brim. Use orange juice for the remaining half.
Gently tap the ice cube trays on a flat surface to remove any air bubbles and ensure the liquid fills all gaps around the fruit.
Place the ice cube trays flat in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
Once frozen, pop out the fruit cubes and store them in a freezer-safe bag or container until ready to use.
Serve the fruit cubes in glasses of water, sparkling water, lemonade, or iced tea for a burst of color and flavor. Enjoy them as a snack straight from the freezer on a warm day!
