Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks ripe and juicy
  • a handful fresh mint leaves bright green and fragrant
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey adjust to taste
  • half lime lime juice
  • 1/4 cup water filtered for a cleaner taste

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Silicone popsicle molds
  • Sticks
  • Warm water

Method
 

  1. Place the fresh pineapple chunks into your blender, along with the mint leaves, honey, lime juice, and water.
  2. Blend everything until the mixture is completely smooth and fragrant, about 30 seconds. You should see a vibrant, slightly frothy liquid.
  3. Pour the smooth mixture into silicone popsicle molds, leaving about an centimeter of space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
  4. Insert the popsicle sticks into each mold, then gently tap the molds on the counter to release any trapped air bubbles.
  5. Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight, until completely firm and icy.
  6. Once frozen, run warm water briefly over the outside of the molds for about 10 seconds to loosen the popsicles.
  7. Gently pull on the sticks to unmold the popsicles, revealing their bright, icy exterior and fragrant aroma.
  8. Serve immediately for the best texture, or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Notes

For an extra herbal twist, try basil instead of mint. Adjust honey for sweetness based on pineapple ripeness.
