How long does it take for popsicles to freeze?

It will take a minimum of 4 hours for popsicles to freeze, but we recommend keeping them in the freezer for 6-8 hours, or--even better--overnight.

How long do these popsicles keep in the freezer?

You can keep these frozen for about 6 months.

Which popsicle molds should I use?

We really like these <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Eco-Friendly-Popsicles-Leak-Proof-Kitzini/dp/B083BVB76M/ref=asc_df_B083BVB76M/?tag=&linkCode=df0&hvadid=416720912294&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2071159372449188128&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9016829&hvtargid=pla-900053388135&ref=&adgrpid=90729935261&th=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">stainless steel popsicle molds . We've found they're the most reliable and freeze fastest, but feel free to use anything you have on hand.

What do I do if my popsicles are stuck in the mold?

We like to run the popsicle mold under warm water for 10-15 seconds. You can also leave the molds out on the counter for 5-10 minutes. The outer layer of the popsicle will melt, making it very easy to remove from the mold.

What do I do if I don't have a popsicle mold?

If you don't have a popsicle mold, you can try an ice cube tray, a muffin tin, or paper/plastic cups.

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

Add mango, coconut water, lime juice, and agave to a high speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour into popsicle molds (ours hold 2.5 fl oz each), and freeze for 6-8 hours, or overnight.

Notes

Use fresh or frozen fruit: We like using frozen mango because it saves us time, but you can also use fresh if preferred.

If you have time, let the frozen mango thaw out a bit (10-15 minutes) at room temperature. This makes the blended mixture a bit less icy and chunky, which makes it a lot easier to pour into the molds. You can also pop the frozen mango in the microwave for about 30 to 60 seconds to thaw it out more quickly.

Using freshly squeezed lime juice will really improve the flavor of your pops.

Feel free to sub out coconut water for regular water, juice (pineapple or orange), coconut milk, or even greek yogurt.

Storage: Once you remove the popsicles from the mold, stack them in an airtight container, with sheets of parchment paper in between each popsicle to prevent sticking.

Get rid of air bubbles by gently tapping the mold on your countertop before placing in the freezer.
