Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks ripe and fragrant
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves bruised slightly to release aroma
  • 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup adjust to taste
  • 1 squeeze lime juice freshly squeezed

Equipment

  • Blender
  • popsicle molds
  • small knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • warm water

Method
 

  1. Gather your equipment: blender, measuring cups, popsicle molds, and a small knife.
  2. Use the small knife to cut the fresh pineapple into chunks. Aim for about 2 cups of fruit for a smooth, flavorful base.
  3. Place the pineapple chunks into the blender, add the bruised mint leaves, honey or agave syrup, and a squeeze of lime juice.
  4. Blend everything until the mixture is smooth with a few small pineapple bits remaining for texture. Smell the herbal aroma and taste to adjust sweetness if needed.
  5. Pour the vibrant yellow mixture into your popsicle molds, leaving about a quarter inch at the top for expansion during freezing.
  6. Insert the sticks or covers into the molds and place them in the freezer. Let them freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
  7. Once frozen solid, run warm water over the outside of each mold for a few seconds to loosen the popsicles.
  8. Gently pull the popsicles out of the molds. Let them sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes to soften slightly before serving.
  9. Enjoy these refreshing pineapple mint popsicles immediately, or store leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
