12 Vegan Popsicles and Ice Creams You Need to Try

It’s almost 90 degrees today, so this is definitely the right time for another vegan summer roundup. This time, I got 12 vegan popsicles and ice creams you really need to try this summer!  They’re all totally dairy-free, creamy, super yummy, and some of them are even insanely healthy!!

Until a couple of years ago, I would have never believed that making vegan ice cream could be this easy! You can just replace cow’s milk with coconut milk, almond and soy milk, or just use bananas, avocados, or even the liquid from chickpea cans (aka aquafaba) instead. Yes, you’ve heard right. These crazy vegans even use the brine of legumes to make ice cream and the most surprising thing is that it even turns out incredibly delicious! You may have heard of this secret ingredient by now as it’s pretty popular in the vegan world. It’s also an amazing egg replacer.

But back to the vegan popsicles and ice creams! I teamed up with some of my blogger friends and I think I got something for every taste in this vegan popsicle and ice cream roundup. Chocolate, berries, peanut butter, caramel – we’ve got it all covered. We even got a vegan ice cream cake, sweet potato ice cream, and green smoothie popsicles. I hope I succeeded in making you crave vegan popsicles and ice cream by now. Haha! So, here we go:
