This recipe for Sweet Cherry Yogurt Popsicles combines fresh bing cherries with delicious creamy yogurt!
It’s been a week of frozen treats and food On a Stick at our house. Today, I’m combining those two in a way that highlights all the goodness summer has to offer. Fresh Bing cherries are paired with delicious Green Valley Organics yogurt to produce a creamy, delicious Popsicle that will have you wishing summer was all year long.
If Green Valley Organics is a new brand to you, like it was me, let me take the opportunity to introduce you to the company. Trust me, you’ll want to become familiar with this company as they’ll change the way you think about dairy products! This yogurt absolutely adds so much goodness to this sweet cherry yogurt popsicle recipe, but also – you are going to fall in love with their story just as much.
Green Valley Organics is part of the Red Hill Farm & Creamery. All Green Valley Organics products are kosher certified and free of artificial sugar, coloring, preservatives, stabilizers or powdered milk. In addition, Green Valley Organics dairy products are the first line of lactose free, real cow dairy yogurt, kefir and sour cream to be available nationwide. If you need more of a reason to support Green Valley Organics, take a look at their website to see their pledge to their consumers. I think you’ll be quite impressed.
These delicious sweet cherry yogurt popsicles are easy, nutritious and delicious. I used honey and vanilla yogurt, but you can use any flavor that you’d like (just know that if you add other flavors it will need to compliment your main showstopper – the bing cherries!).
If you are looking for a fun and easy way to please all the kiddos at your house this summer, definitely make a batch of these sweet cherry yogurt popsicles! They will please big and little kids alike. Enjoy!

This is a sponsored post. Green Valley Organics sent me some of their product and compensated me for creating a recipe using their yogurt. All opinions expressed are my own.
Is ice cream dairy! My favorite!

Well, I LOVE Green Valley Organics… and my fav, product is probably butter. Sorry. DEFINITELY butter. 🙂
Oh, and I adore that cherry picture!!
I love dark cherries, back home in Oregon when cherry season came around I would eat about a pound a day haha. Their flavor is unmatched! Putting them in a creamy popsicle is an excellent idea, great recipe.
ice cream! although i’m loving cheese more and more 🙂
I have some popsicle holders that are languishing in my cupboard. These might just be the inspiration I need to dig them out. I didn’t know OxBo made a cherry pitter. My mom has carpal tunnel and loves their kitchen aids. I’ll have to get one for each of us. Frederick Sallaz
I’ve also never heard of Green Valley Organics but I’m glad that I have now! I like straight up milk. Boring, I know.
Ice cream!!
unsalted European butter and full-fat buttermilk icy cold from the fridge.

I love all forms of dairy, but I always have yogurt.
What a cool recipe. I saw some fresh blueberries and blackberries at the farmers market. I really wish I had bought some to try out this recipe.
Dairy, as a category, is my favorite food. But if I had to pick my favorite from that, I would have to say milk. About the best thing ever. And you can make more dairy products with it…yogurt anyone!
Fresh mozzarella!
Cheese!!…on just about everything!
I almost never go a day without yogurt, looove those probiotics!
By far my most favorite dairy product is sour cream, i love a dash of sour cream in my beat soup, with my stuffed peppers and with fresh strawberries.
Would love to try Green Valley Organics sour cream!
I love pretty much all dairy – milk, ice cream, yogurt, butter, cheese. Those popsicles look great – I can’t wait to try them.

amazing! I could use one of these right now. YUM!
I’m amazed that I’ve never made a popsicle…although since my kids are grown I suppose it’s not too surprising. When they were kids, the popsicle kits were not around, so we improvised.
i absolutely LOVE sour cream, but am very sensitive to lactose so it isnt something i can indluge in that often… gotta get me some of this!
Favorite dairy product…..hmmm….ICE CREAM!!!
Ice cream! Preferably a flavor with small “treasures” inside that I can hunt for with my spoon.
Left Hand Brewing’s Milk Stout!
I’d have a box of these to go, please! (:
Prune yogurt in the mornings.. does wonders 😉
CHEESE, of course. All kinds. We’ve been making popsicles around here too. SO fun for the kids.
Love these sweet treats. They’re good for you and made with fresh ingredients. So, you don’t have to feel a twinge of guilt indulging in them. 😉
I can’t get over how pretty they are! And such a simple recipe. Love it!
My favorite dairy product is milk!

It’s a toss-up between cheese and ice cream.
I love, love, love yogurt — but I’m discovering all sorts of new uses for sour cream in baking and cooking, so that is also becoming one of my favorite dairy products.

My favorite dairy product is ice cream.
I’m not entering the contest but I wanted to thank you for this lovely idea!! I improvised a bit with what I have at home and what’s on sale at the grocery store. I used raspberries instead of cherries and I had to adjust the amount of lemon juice/honey to compensate for the tartness. I used the Greek yogurt I have at home and added a dash of vanilla (since I don’t have vanilla yogurt). I made the popsicles and I couldn’t stop licking the bowl!! I can’t wait until tomorrow. These will be perfect for my son and his friends. He’s only 2.5 years old and this is such a healthy treat. Thanks again for sharing!
Oops! I meant to say I improvised, not improved. 😛 Please change that for me if you can. I’m sure your recipe is superb and doesn’t need any improvement. But raspberries were really cheap this week and I couldn’t resist.
Cheese! or maybe icecream
OMG! I must make these before cherry season is over!!
My favorite Dairy product is greek yogurt.. but I’m a real dairy freak.. I love cheese, butter, milk, kefir, cottage cheese, sour cream – you name it, I love it!! 🙂
