Cuisine: Tropical
Serves: 6 pops
Ingredients
- 1 cup mango puree
- 1 cup pineapple puree
- 1 cup strawberry puree
- 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup
- 1 tbsp lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare the fruit purees by thoroughly washing and peeling the mango, pineapple, and strawberries. Separately blend each fruit in a blender until smooth and completely pureed.
- In a small bowl, mix the honey or agave syrup with lime juice to create a sweet-tangy liquid that will enhance the fruit flavors.
- Gently fold the lime-honey mixture into each fruit puree, stirring carefully to maintain the individual fruit colors and flavors.
- Take popsicle molds and begin layering the three fruit purees. Create a swirled effect by alternating small amounts of each puree and using a thin skewer or knife to create gentle marbling patterns.
- Ensure each mold is filled to about 1/4 inch from the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
- Insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold, making sure they stand upright and are centered.
- Place the filled molds in the freezer and allow to freeze completely, which typically takes 4-6 hours or overnight for best results.
- To serve, briefly run the mold under warm water to help release the fruit pops easily. Gently twist and pull to remove from molds.
Tips
- Use ripe, peak-season fruits for the most intense and natural flavors
- Strain your purees through a fine-mesh sieve for ultra-smooth textures
- For perfect swirls, use a thin skewer or chopstick and make gentle figure-eight movements
- Freeze popsicle molds at the coldest part of your freezer for fastest setting
- If popsicles stick to the mold, run under warm water for 10-15 seconds
- For a protein boost, consider adding a splash of Greek yogurt to your purees
- Experiment with different honey varieties to add unique flavor dimensions
