First add the fresh blueberries to a pan along with ¼ Cup of sugar and water. Mix well and heat in medium flame.
When the blueberries start to soften, slightly mash them up using the ladle. Continue to cook by stirring frequently until the blueberry mixture thickens up into a saucy consistency. Turn off the flame and bring it to room temperature.
Meanwhile, add the yogurt to a mixing bowl. Add the remaining ¼ cup of sugar and vanilla extract. Using an electric/hand whisk, blend the yogurt until smooth and silky.
Take your ice pop mold. To each mold, add the yogurt until half full. Add couple of teaspoons of the blueberry mixture. Gently swirl it in using a long wooden skewer. Repeat the yogurt blueberry layers until the mold is almost full. Insert the popsicle sticks.
Put it in the freezer until fully set. I left it overnight.
Enjoy cold.
