1 1/4 cup apple juice, (all natural, no sugar added) (either store bought or freshly juiced)
mixed berries, (enough to fill each popsicles mold)

Method

Slice strawberries, and then fill each popsicle mold with the mixed berries. Put a few of the sliced strawberries pieces against the edge of the popsicle molds. (All in all, we used 6 blackberries, 18 blueberries, 12 raspberries, and 5 strawberries to fill six popsicle molds)
Pour apple juice into the popsicle molds and on top of the berries until filled to the top. This was 1 1/4 cup of apple juice for us. Top each popsicle mold with the popsicle sticks.
Freeze for at least 4 hours.
