Homemade Danimals Yogurt Cups – Easy Kid-Friendly Snack

If your kids are obsessed with those little Danimals yogurt drinks, you’re going to love this homemade version! These yogurt cups are thick, creamy, and full of real fruit flavor—with just three simple ingredients. No artificial flavors or dyes, and no plastic bottles to throw away. I like to store ours in mini mason jars for a fun and reusable grab-and-go snack!
These are great for lunchboxes, after-school snacks, or even breakfast with a banana or some toast. My kids think they’re getting a treat, and I know they’re getting something wholesome.
Ingredients (Makes 6 small cups)
- 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
Or use plain Greek yogurt sweetened with a little honey or maple syrup, or even strawberry-flavored yogurt—whatever your kids love! - 1 cup milk
Any kind works—whole milk gives a creamier texture, but feel free to use whatever you have on hand. - 1/2 cup fresh or frozen strawberries
If using frozen, no need to thaw—just blend them right in!

Give it a quick taste—if your berries were super tart, feel free to add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup to sweeten it up a bit. - Pour and chill.
