How do you make Piña Colada Popsicles?

You will need:

This recipe makes 8 2-ounce popsicles. The recipe amounts may have to be adjusted to fill different sized popsicle molds.

By the way, if you don’t have any popsicle molds on hand, it’s not a big deal! Here are some creative homemade molds you can try.


Method:

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a bowl and gently mix until the sugar is dissolved. Avoid creating air bubbles, as it will create small air pockets in your final product. (It’s not a big deal if it happens…it will still taste great! It’s more about the presentation.)Piña Colada Popsicles
  2. Fill the popsicle molds with the mixture. If your popsicle mold has a place to insert popsicle sticks, do so now.Piña Colada Popsicles
  3. Freeze for 6 hours or overnight.**If your popsicle mold does not have a place for popsicle sticks, remove the mold from the freezer after about 2 hours. Place the popsicle sticks in, and return to the freezer for at least another 4 hours.**Piña Colada Popsicles
  4. When you are ready to eat them, run the popsicle mold under warm water, then gently pull on the popsicle sticks to release them from the mold. Enjoy!

Are all coconut milks the same?

Aroy-D coconut milk.No, not all coconut milk is created equal! Depending on the brand, the ratio of coconut milk to water will vary, which affects the flavor, consistency and nutritional value. Some brands only contain coconut milk and water, while others have sweeteners and preservatives added. It is really disappointing to open a can (or carton) of coconut milk and have it taste watery and artificial. It can completely ruin the flavor of your dish.

I recommend using Aroy-D brand (from Thailand), which can be found at any Asian store. You can also buy it online here. It is contains 60% coconut milk and water, and that’s it. It is delicious and creamy, and tastes very natural.

How do I store the popsicles?

You can store the popsicles in an airtight container or freezer bag with parchment paper between any layers you may have.

If you don’t already have them, try these reusable freezer bags.  They’re better for the environment and better for your wallet!

Substitutions

Pineapple Concentrate:

You can substitute fresh pineapple juice or canned pineapple juice for the (frozen) concentrate if you prefer, but the pineapple flavor won’t be as strong. Keep in mind, if you use a larger ratio of fresh (or regular) juice to milk, you will get a stronger pineapple flavor, but the consistency will be more icy instead of creamy.

Milk:

I use a combination of coconut milk and regular milk because I like the flavor and consistency it creates.  If you want to make a vegan version of the Piña Colada Popsicles, simply replace the regular milk with more coconut milk.
