Ingredients Equipment Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ripe pineapple chunks fresh or frozen
  • 10 leaves fresh mint leaves roughly torn
  • 2 tablespoons honey or adjust to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice fresh squeezed preferred
  • 0.5 cup water cold

Equipment

  • Blender
  • popsicle molds
  • small pitcher or spoon

Method
 

  1. Place the pineapple chunks into the blender and blend until completely smooth, about 30 seconds, until the mixture is thick and frosty.
  2. Add the torn mint leaves, honey, lemon juice, and water to the blender. Blend again for about 10 seconds, just enough to incorporate the herbs and sweeten the mixture while preserving some herbal texture.
  3. Pour the vibrant mixture into your popsicle molds, filling each about three-quarters full to allow room for expansion during freezing.
  4. Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and gently press them down so they stay upright and centered.
  5. Place the molds in the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until completely solid and frosty.
  6. When ready to serve, run warm water over the outside of the molds for 10 seconds to loosen the popsicles.
  7. Gently pull the popsicles out of the molds and set them on a serving plate.
  8. Let the popsicles sit at room temperature for 2 minutes to soften slightly, making them easier to bite into.
  9. Enjoy these icy, herbal-infused pineapple popsicles immediately for a refreshing summer treat.
