Strain them
Strain out the strawberry pulp by pushing strawberries through a fine meshed sieve, strainer or cheesecloth to collect the strawberry juice. Discard the pulp.
-
Squeeze a citrus
To make sugar-free lemonade, use a juicer or a citrus squeezer to squeeze the juice out of the lemons until you have 1 cup of freshly squeezed juice. Strain out lemon seeds and pulp by pouring the fresh lemon juice through a strainer. You can use concentrated store bought lemon juice too if desired.
-
Combine in pitcher
In a large pitcher, combine lemon juice, strawberry juice, water, sweetener and salt.
-
Pour & freeze
Pour into popsicles molds. Add popsicles sticks and freeze overnight or until hardened.

These turned out great. I used monk fruit sweetener instead of Swerve and they were still perfectly sweet. My kids loved them too.
