Rhubarb Ginger Yogurt Pops
Rhubarb Ginger Yogurt Pops
This recipe for Rhubarb Ginger Yogurt Pops is made with Rhubarb Ginger Sauce recipe that was posted on Tuesday. It’s made similar to the recipe for Strawberry Yogurt Pops that I posted on Monday but with a few minor tweaks. Let’s just say that this recipe is a combination of both recipes and call it a day!
Cool and Refreshing
There is nothing better than an icy, cold treat on a hot summer day. I’ve been on a popsicle roll here lately and this recipe is one of many. Another plus when it comes to making homemade pops, is of course sampling them. So far, out of all six recipes they’ve all passed with flying colors.

Rhubarb Facts
The thick, celerylike stalks of this buckwheat-family member can reach up to 2 feet long. The stalks are the only edible portion of the plant. The large green leaves contain oxalic acid and can therefore be toxic. Though rhubarb is generally eaten as a fruit, it’s botanically a vegetable. Because of its intense tartness, rhubarb is usually combined with a considerable amount of sugar. Rhubarb makes delicious sauces, jams and desserts. In many regions rhubarb is also known as ‘pie plant’ because of its popularity to be used in pies. In the United States, rhubarb is often paired with strawberries.
