Mango Ice Pops
These easy mango ice pops are a brilliant way to cool off this summer. And with no refined sugar and no artificial nasties, you can feel good about having them too. Super easy to make and with only 3 ingredients!
Ingredients
- 3 cups mango (about 500g)
- 2 tsp lime juice
- 1 cup full fat coconut milk (250ml) (see note)
- 2 tsp maple syrup or honey optional
Instructions
- Add the mango to a blender with the lime juice. Blend to a smooth paste.
- Pour half of the mango mixture into ice pop/lolly trays.
- Separate the thick part of the coconut milk from the liquid. Stir until it is smooth. Pour about half of this into the trays. Repeat with the rest of the mango and the rest of the coconut.
- Put in the freezer to set for at least 4 hours. Once frozen pop out of the trays.
Notes
- Use only use the thick, creamy part at the top of the coconut milk. You can save the rest for curries or smoothies.
- If your mangos are under-ripe or not as sweet as you would like, feel free to add a tsp or two of maple syrup or honey as you mix. You can also add this to the coconut milk, if you prefer a sweeter taste.
- For best results, remove from the freezer for 10-15 minutes before eating.
- You can use frozen mango if preferred, but defrost before blending.
