Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ripe pineapple chunks fresh or frozen
  • 10 leaves fresh mint leaves gently crushed
  • 1 cup water or coconut water chilled
  • 2 tablespoons honey or alternative sweetener
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Popsicle molds
  • Sticks
  • Knife

Method
 

  1. Place the pineapple chunks into your blender and add the crushed mint leaves.
  2. Pour in the chilled water or coconut water, then drizzle in the honey and squeeze in the lemon juice.
  3. Secure the lid on the blender and blend everything until the mixture is completely smooth and vibrant yellow, about 30 seconds. Smell the fresh pineapple and mint aroma.
  4. Taste the puree and adjust sweetness if needed—add a little more honey if you prefer it sweeter.
  5. Pour the blended mixture evenly into your popsicle molds, leaving about 1 centimeter of space at the top to allow for expansion.
  6. Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds, ensuring they stand upright, then carefully place the molds in the freezer.
  7. Freeze the popsicles for at least 4 hours or overnight until they are firm and icy.
  8. Once frozen, run the molds briefly under warm water to loosen the popsicles.
  9. Gently wiggle the popsicles free from the molds and enjoy immediately for the best icy texture.
