Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks ripe and juicy
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves about a handful
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 1 pinch salt enhances flavors
  • 1/4 cup water or coconut water adjust for consistency

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Popsicle molds
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Citrus juicer

Method
 

  1. Place the pineapple chunks, mint leaves, lime juice, salt, and water into your blender.
  2. Blend the mixture on high for about 30 seconds until it’s completely smooth and fragrant, with a vibrant, slightly frothy texture.
  3. Taste the mixture and adjust the lime or salt if needed, ensuring a balanced, refreshing flavor.
  4. Pour the smooth blend evenly into your popsicle molds, leaving about 1 centimeter at the top for expansion.
  5. Insert the sticks firmly into each mold and place them upright in the freezer.
  6. Freeze the popsicles for at least 4 hours, or until they are solid and firm to the touch.
  7. To serve, run warm water over the outside of each mold for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles.
  8. Gently pull the popsicles out and enjoy immediately for the best icy, refreshing experience.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a splash of coconut milk or experiment with herbs like basil. Using ripe, juicy pineapple ensures the sweetest result, and running the molds under warm water helps unmold easily.
