Pineapple Coconut Lime Popsicles
These refreshing Pineapple Coconut Lime Popsicles are bursting with tropical flavor, perfect for beating the summer heat without added sugar or artificial ingredients. They combine fresh pineapple, creamy coconut milk, and zesty lime for a homemade frozen treat you can feel good about enjoying.
Equipment
- Popsicle Molds
- Blender
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh pineapple chopped (frozen works too, just thaw slightly)
- 1 can full-fat coconut milk 13.5 oz
- 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup adjust to taste
- 2 limes juice and zest
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt to enhance flavors
Instructions
- Chop 2 cups of fresh pineapple into small chunks. If using canned pineapple, drain thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, coconut milk, sweetener of choice, lime juice, lime zest, vanilla extract, and salt. Pulse until smooth but still slightly textured.
- Taste your mixture and adjust sweetness or lime juice as needed.
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top as the mixture will expand slightly when freezing.
- Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 4-6 hours, preferably overnight. If your molds don't have built-in sticks, cover the tops with foil, make a small slit in the center of each, and insert wooden sticks after about 1 hour of freezing when the mixture is partially set.
Notes
For instagram-worthy popsicles, try adding a few small pineapple pieces or thin lime slices to the sides of the molds before pouring.
Once completely frozen, popsicles can be removed from molds and stored in airtight freezer bags or containers for up to 1 month.
For best texture, allow popsicles to sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes before enjoying.
