Hi everyone, I am getting so excited because summer is right around the corner and what better way to kick off the end of the school year but with an amazing recipe for Berry Colada Popsicles! I will admit I have a summer obsession with making homemade popsicles and it because the taste is amazing and they are so refreshing, so you can bet there will be more popsicle recipes to come! However, these Berry Colada Popsicles are perfect for Memorial Day Weekend or Forth of July because of their natural red, white, and blue beauty. When serving these fun popsicles you are sure to receive smiles for young to old! I know you are ready for the recipe, so let’s get started…
There is a process to making these patriotic layers, but the good thing is these popsicles can be made days or even weeks ahead of your event, so their is no fuss!
First, we are going to make simple syrup and all you need is an equal amount of water and granulated sugar. In a small sauce pan dissolve the sugar in water and set aside to cool. The amount of simple syrup you will use depends on the sweetness of the fruit. Taste each layer to determine how much simple syrup you would like to use.
Then in a blender puree 2 cups of quartered strawberries, 1-2 TBSP of simple syrup, 2 TBSP of French Vanilla Coconut Milk Creamer. Divide mixture as you pour into popsicle molds, cover, and freeze for 1-2 hours. Each layer does not need to be completely solid before adding another layer, but each layer should at least be partially frozen. Next, puree 1/2 cup fresh pineapple, 2 TBSP of simple syrup, 1/4 cup of French Vanilla Coconut Milk Creamer, and 3/4 cup of canned lite coconut milk. Divide mixture as you pour into popsicle molds and add the popsicle sticks! Soak the popsicle sticks for at least 10 minutes before inserting into the second layer. Soaking them allows the stick to stand in place better. Now you may cover and freeze for 1-2 hours before adding the last layer. Last, puree 2 cups of blueberries, 1-2 TBSP of simple syrup, and 2 TBPS of French Vanilla Coconut Milk Creamer. Divide mixture as you pour into molds, cover, and freeze preferably overnight.
