How To Make Mango Popsicles
First, add the frozen mango, coconut water, and lime juice to a high-powered blender.
Then, blend until smooth.
Next, pour the liquid into a popsicle mold.
After that, place the lid on your popsicle mold and insert the popsicle sticks.
Then, freeze the popsicles in the freezer overnight. Once frozen, you can sprinkle some Tajin and lime zest on top of the popsicles.
Tips For Making Mango Popsicles
- Blend Until Smooth: Make sure to thoroughly blend the ingredients until smooth. You don’t want any unblended mango chunks.
- Freeze: It takes these popsicles about 6-8 hours to freeze. However, it is easiest to make these popsicles the day before and freeze them overnight. Also, keep any leftovers in the freezer so they stay frozen.
- Popsicle Mold: We used this popsicle mold, which made 7 regular-sized mango popsicles. Feel free to use your popsicle mold of choice or even a mini popsicle mold to make smaller popsicles.
- Flavor: These mango popsicles are delicious as is and are perfectly balanced with a hint of lime. If you would like to change the flavor, you could use half mango and half pineapple. Or, for a different flavor altogether, try our strawberry cherry lime popsicles!
- Use Frozen Fruit: We have found that it is easiest and most cost-effective to use frozen mango chunks in this recipe.
Mango Popsicles With Tajin
You can add Tajin chile lime seasoning on top to make mango Tajin popsicles! Tajin adds a burst of spicy tangy flavor that is delicious with these popsicles.
How To Store Popsicles
Keep these mango popsicles in the popsicle mold you froze them in or transfer them to a freezer-safe Ziploc bag or stasher bag once they are frozen. Store these popsicles in the freezer until you are ready to enjoy them unless they will melt.
Mango Popsicle Variations
- Mango: You can use frozen or fresh mango in this recipe. We like to use frozen mango chunks. However, fresh mango will work, as well. The consistency will be thinner when blended, but they will freeze the same.
- Creamy Mango Popsicles: If you prefer creamy mango popsicles, you can use almond milk instead of coconut water. However, if you do this, make sure to taste it before freezing and add some sugar or your sweetener of choice to taste if needed. Also, you could even use light coconut milk in place of the coconut water. Or, you could use half almond milk and half light coconut milk.
- Texture: You can change up the texture by cutting some fresh mango into small cubes and adding it to the popsicle mold inserts before freezing.
- Sugar-Free Popsicles: These mango popsicles have no added sugar! Their natural sweetness comes from the ripe fruit and coconut water.
- Tajin: Make mango Tajin popsicles by sprinkling some Tajin on top once frozen! Or, you could blend 1/2 teaspoon of Tajin into the popsicle mixture before freezing.
