Cool off with these delicious Pina Colada Popsicles! Made with just four simple ingredients, they bring the perfect balance of creamy coconut and tangy pineapple to your taste buds. Dairy-free, vegan, and naturally sweetened, these popsicles are a healthy and easy-to-make dessert that the whole family will love.
Ingredients
- 14 oz can of coconut milk
- 1/2 cup cream of coconut
- 20 oz can of pineapple chunks or fresh pineapple use 10 cored slices for fresh pineapple
- 2 tbsp of sugar or sweetener this is optional and depends on the sweetness level you want
- coconut shavings optional
- 1 oz rum optional
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender. If you use canned pineapple use the pineapple and juice. Also if this is the adult version, add the rum as well. I usually use non spiced rum, but any rum you like works. Cover with the lid and blend until it is smooth.
- Once blended get your popsicle mold. If you like fruit pieces in your popsicles, you can either cut pineapple in small tidbits and add coconut shavings in the blend, or you can add them by hand while filling the mold. I prefer the later one, because I determine on how much fruit pieces go into each mold.
- Fill each section close to the top. Wipe off the spills and cover with the lid.
Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 8 hours. Best when frozen overnight. - Run some warm water over the mold before pulling them out. I pull them out all at once and then slide them into popsicle bags. I will leave a link for it in the Equipment section.
Now enjoy this wonderful fruity treat!
