Wash all the berries thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Hull the strawberries and chop them into quarters.
In a blender, add the strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, almond milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth. Taste the mixture, and if desired, add erythritol to sweeten, blending again briefly.
Using a sieve, strain the mixture over a bowl or a large measuring cup to remove seeds and ensure a smooth popsicle texture.
Pour the strained mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion.
If your popsicle mold does not have a lid with built-in sticks, cover the top with foil and insert popsicle sticks about three-quarters of the way down into each mold.
Place the molds in the freezer and allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
To release the popsicles, run the molds under warm water for a few seconds and gently pull on the sticks to remove.
Serve immediately or store in a freezer bag for up to two weeks for a quick, refreshing snack.
