Honey peach popsicles made with matcha green tea just scream summer to us! These cold, refreshing popsicles are the perfect healthy treat, no matter the time of day. With just three ingredients, they’re simple and easy to make, and bursting with flavor.
You can make these popsicles all year round by using canned peaches or fresh, ripe peaches when they are in season. If you don’t have popsicle molds, you can use a small Dixie cup instead. If you’ve never cooked or baked with matcha, this is a great recipe to get started with! These popsicles melt in your mouth and are naturally sweet, loaded with benefits, and perfect for the warmer weather.
What You’ll Need:
Whole leaf matcha tea bags: Our organic whole-leaf matcha tea bags offer the matcha you know and love in a plastic-free tea bag for ultimate ease. If you don’t have matcha tea bags, substitute by making a regular cup of matcha tea instead, made with 1 cup of hot water and ½ teaspoon of matcha powder.
Canned Peaches: Look for unsweetened canned peaches. You can also use one fresh ripe peach, if in season.
Honey: Or sweetener of choice
Ingredients:
2 tea bags (whole leaf matcha)
1 cup hot water
½ cup canned peaches, or 1 fresh peach, diced
¼ cup honey
Directions:
- Steep tea bags in hot water for 5 minutes.

- Pour liquid into popsicle molds and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Tips & Tricks
- For creamier popsicles, add ¼ cup full-fat coconut milk or Greek yogurt to your mixture before blending.
- Don’t skip the honey. The sweetness balances the earthy, umami flavor of matcha, making the flavor pop.
- If using canned peaches, drain the peaches from the can first.
- Taste before freezing. Depending on your peaches, you might want to add a little extra honey or even a squeeze of lemon.
Bottom Line
These honey peach green tea popsicles are a no-fuss summer treat. With just three ingredients and minimal prep, you can enjoy a refreshing, antioxidant-packed snack perfect for both kids and adults. Keep a batch in your freezer and thank yourself later.
