Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans (13.5 oz / 400ml each) full-fat canned coconut milk, chilled
  • 1/2 cup fresh lime juice (from 3-4 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons lime zest (from 2-3 limes)
  • 1/3 - 1/2 cup maple syrup or agave nectar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Chill your coconut milk in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 4-6 hours.
  2. Zest your limes to get about 2 tablespoons of zest, then juice the limes to yield 1/2 cup of juice.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thick coconut cream, lime juice, lime zest, sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt.
  4. Whisk the mixture until smooth and well combined. Adjust sweetness or lime intensity to taste.
  5. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving about a quarter-inch of space at the top.
  6. Insert popsicle sticks into the center of each mold.
  7. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or preferably overnight until solid.
  8. To release, run the molds under warm water for 10-20 seconds and enjoy.

Notes

Store popsicles wrapped individually in freezer-safe bags or cling film to prevent freezer burn. They can last up to 2-3 months.
