    Mangos are one of my favorite fruits. They're sweet, juicy, and wonderfully versatile in both sweet and savory dishes. Mangos also pair perfectly with coconut milk in these mango coconut popsicles. The flavor was requested by my mother's group and was super popular with the kids. Like many of my other popsicle recipes such as my coconut popsicles, these are dairy free so all the kids could eat them.

    Looking for more homemade popsicles? Why not try making my juicy pineapple cherry popsicles, jello popsicles or lemonade popsicles.

    Ingredients:

    Mango coconut milk popsicle ingredients

    Mangoes: I use Kensington pride mangos in this recipe, but you and use whatever type of mango you like, as long as it has a strong mango flavor. It's important to use really ripe mangos that are almost on the verge of being over-ripe for maximum taste and sweetness.

    Coconut milk: full-fat coconut milk helps give that characteristic coconut taste to these popsicles. You could use low-fat coconut milk but your popsicles will have less flavor and be icier.

    Sugar: this recipe uses white sugar which keeps the flavors nice and clean and allows the mango and coconut flavors to shine.

    To make mango and coconut popsicles

    Slicing mango

    Cut up the mango. To cut the mango slice off each cheek, score in a grid pattern and pop the flesh inside out to make it easier to slice off. Cut off the slides and cut horizontally down the length. If you really want to get off every piece of mango flesh you can squeeze the last of the flesh off the mango spear with your hands, or just give it to your kids to suck off the last of the flesh 🙂

    Straining blitzed mango

    Blitz the mango flesh with one tablespoon of sugar and strain well. You will need about 20oz (600ml) of mango puree in total.

    Adding sugar to coconut milk

    Shake your can of coconut milk well to ensure it's properly mixed. Open the can and pour it into a bowl. Add two tablespoons of sugar and a large pinch of salt. Mix well and taste, add more salt if needed.

    Hot tip: make sure you have sufficient room in your freezer for your filled popsicle moulds Before you fill them and try to put them in the freezer, or there will be tears!

    Adding coconut milk mix to moulds

    To make the popsicles fill the molds about ¼ of the way with mango puree. Freeze for about 20 minutes or until just set. Top up until half filled with coconut mix and freeze for another 20 minutes or so. Repeat twice more until the molds are full. Add sticks and freeze until firm.

    For simpler popsicles you can also half fill with mango pulp, free for 30 minutes then top up with coconut mixture. Gently swirl, add sticks and then freeze until firm.

    How to serve:

    Remove from molds and enjoy!

    How to store:

    You can store these popsicles in an airtight container lined with baking paper between them to stop them from sticking together, in the freezer for up to a month.
