Reasons you’ll ♡ coconut limoncello popsicles

you need four simple ingredients
they are tasty, refreshing, and perfect for summer
they are a great dessert/cocktail combo

Ingredients you’ll need

Coconut milk– I always recommend going for a full fat coconut milk, and here I go again: use full fat coconut milk! They are so much creamier this way. Light coconut milk will work in a pinch.
Limoncello– I don’t claim to be a limoncello aficionado. I used what my liquor store carried (not a huge selection).
Lemon– we are using the juice of two lemons. Fresh lemon juice takes these popsicles over the top and I do not recommend using concentrate.
Powdered sugar– you can use confectioners sugar or superfine sugar, we just need to make sure it will dissolve in the popsicles. Granulated sugar would need to be simmered to dissolve and we don’t want to mess around with that, now do we?

How to make popsicles

Since coconut milk can have solids, I recommend using blender; you can use a stand blender (I love this Vitamix), an immersion blender, or an electric hand mixer. Combine all ingredients in the blender or a large bowl, and blend until smooth and the sugar has dissolved.

Next, we will pour the mixture into popsicle molds. The ones I used were purchased at my local grocery store, and are very similar to these popsicle molds. You can use the sticks that come with the popsicle molds or wooden sticks.

If you choose to use wooden sticks, you will need to wait 1-2 hours until the popsicles are semi-frozen, then place the sticks into the popsicles. Freeze for 12 hours or until completely frozen.

Recipe tips

you will need to blend the coconut milk with the limoncello, lemon juice and powdered sugar to get everything completely mixed using a stand blender of an immersion blender
if you can’t find limoncello, consider swapping for vodka or white rum
this recipe has only been tested with powdered sugar and I cannot guarantee a liquid sweetener like honey will set up in the freezer
popsicles may be frozen for up to 3 months
