Ice pops are a fun way to cool off from the heat and humidity of summer, but those calories from sugar can add up fast.

Keep calories under control -- and give yourself an antioxidant boost -- by making homemade fruit ice pops. The 100 percent apple and orange juices help the berries puree easier, and the almond extract adds a tad of natural sweetness. Add a little sugar or low-calorie sweetener if you prefer sweeter pops. Use any combination of in-season berries -- raspberries, strawberries, blackberries or even blueberries.
