Health Benefits of pineapple and oranges
Pineapples are a good source of antioxidants, which may reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and certain cancers.
Pineapple contains compounds that reduces inflammation which is linked to cancer. One of these compounds is the enzyme bromelain, which may stimulate cell death in certain cancer cells and aid white blood cell function.
Oranges may benefit your heart and can help prevent kidney stones. While not rich in iron, they may also protect against anemia by increasing your iron absorption.
I love that these fruits are readily available fresh all year long! I like to use a blender to make these pops nice and smooth โ Iโm not one for chunks of fruit in my treats. But you can make them as chunky as youโd like.
Personally, I like using my ninja blender to make the fruit smooth. If there are any chunks leftover, you can either skim them out of the mixture or add them to the popsicle mold. My kids LOVE the fruit chunks!

Popsicle mold hack
Did your junk drawer eat the popsicle sticks that came with the mold? No problem! After you fill the molds, just get a sheet of waxed paper and fold it over 3 times and place over the top of the molds. Tape around the edges to keep it down. Use a knife with a small pointed tip and pierce through the middle of the wax over each popsicle mold. Insert wooden sticks and you are ready to go!
