Instructions

Start by juicing the oranges using a citrus juicer, pour the juice into a jug and set aside.
Add the strawberries, water, and maple syrup into a high-speed blender and blend on high until smooth.
First, pour the orange juice evenly into each popsicle mold (about 1/2-3/4 full). Then, using a spoon, add the strawberry mixture into each mold.
You can carefully move the strawberry mixture around a little in the molds with a spoon so that the popsicles have more of a gradient look.
Place into the freezer and freezer for at least 1 hours before inserting the popsicle sticks into each mold to help them stay straight.
Freeze for at least 12 hours.
To take them out, run hot water over the molds briefly and they should be easy to pull out.
Store in the freezer in small reclosable plastic bags.

Notes

This popsicle mixture isn‘t very thick so it took over an hour before I could insert the popsicle sticks. The time depends on how strong your freezer is but I recommend not rushing it if you don‘t want the wooden sticks to stick out in every direction.
