Ingredients
– 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
– 1 cup coconut milk (canned or carton)
– 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust for sweetness)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Lemon juice (from half a lemon, optional, for tanginess)
– Additional fresh berries for layering
Instructions
Creating these delightful Berry-Coconut Rocket Pops is a simple and enjoyable process. Follow these steps to make your own stunning frozen treats:
1. Prep the Berries: Wash the mixed berries thoroughly. If using strawberries, remove the stems and cut them into halves.
2. Blend Berry Mix: In a blender, add the mixed berries and blend until smooth. You can leave some chunks for texture if desired.
3. Sweeten (Optional): Taste the berry mixture. If you’d like extra sweetness, add honey or maple syrup and blend again to combine.
4. Prepare Coconut Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together coconut milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
5. Layering: Start by pouring a layer of the berry mixture into your rocket pop molds, filling them about one-third full. Tap the molds gently on a flat surface to remove air bubbles.
6. Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer for about 1 hour, or until the berry layer sets slightly.
7. Add Coconut Layer: Once the berry layer is set, pour the coconut mixture on top, filling the molds about two-thirds full. Again, tap gently to eliminate air bubbles.
8. Final Berry Layer: Pour more of the berry mixture to fill the molds completely, leaving a little space at the top to expand.
9. Insert Sticks: If your molds come with sticks, insert them now, ensuring they go through both layers.
10. Freeze Again: Cover the molds with their lids (if applicable) and place them back in the freezer. Allow at least 4-6 hours, or overnight, to freeze thoroughly.
11. Unmold and Serve: To remove, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds, then gently pull them out.
12. Enjoy: Serve immediately or store in a freezer-safe container for later enjoyment.
These straightforward steps mean you’ll quickly have a batch of beautiful Berry-Coconut Rocket Pops ready to share.
