Stay Cool and Hydrated This Summer With Fruity Froyo
Let’s talk—and then make—froyo. Frozen yogurt, made with yogurt, contains many of the same basic ingredients as ice cream, but any froyo fan can tell you that the treat is entirely different from beloved ice cream. Froyo’s texture is smoother and denser than ice cream. It’s sweet and tart.
Why Fruity Froyo is the Perfect Summer Treat
Like ice cream, froyo is oh-so-delicious. Also like ice cream, frozen yogurt can be made with real milk, one of the best beverages for hydration, even better than water or sports drinks. Froyo is a great way to add more dairy to your day and hydrate all summer long.

2 cups diced mango
1 ½ cup milk
2 tablespoons vanilla pudding mix
Why add pudding mix to homemade ice cream and froyo?
Add pudding mix to your base is based on your texture preferences. Instant pudding mix can act as a thickener for your homemade ice cream or froyo, improving the texture while providing additional flavor to each scoop. It will slow down the melting speed of what would otherwise be soft-serve ice cream.
How do I make froyo with an ice cream maker?
Once the ingredients are blended, follow your ice cream maker’s instructions to create the frozen yogurt’s consistency.
How do I make froyo without an ice cream maker?
Freeze a metal loaf pan to use for no-churn ice cream. Add your blended ingredients to the loaf pan. Pour the mixture into the chilled metal loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze.
When do I add mix-ins to froyo?
If you’re adding anything chunky to the mix that isn’t a topping, like diced fruit, fold them into the blended mix mid-freeze (no-churn) or near the end of the cycle of the appliance you are using.
