Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks ripe for maximum sweetness
  • 10 leaves fresh mint leaves vibrant and fragrant
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice brightens flavor

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Silicone molds
  • Sticks
  • Small Saucepan

Method
 

  1. Place the pineapple chunks and mint leaves into your blender.
  2. Blend until smooth and vibrant, with no visible chunks, and the mixture is bright yellow-green.
  3. Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and warm over low heat for about 2 minutes, just until it’s heated through and the flavors meld slightly. You’ll notice a gentle aroma of pineapple and mint as it warms.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice, then let the mixture cool for a few minutes until it’s just warm or room temperature.
  5. Pour the cool mixture evenly into silicone popsicle molds, leaving about a quarter inch space at the top for expansion.
  6. Insert the sticks into each mold, ensuring they stand upright and are centered.
  7. Place the filled molds in the freezer, laying them flat if possible, and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight until solid.
  8. When ready to serve, run warm water over the outside of each mold for about 10 seconds to loosen the popsicles.
  9. Gently pull the popsicles out of the molds and let them sit at room temperature for a minute if they’re too firm to release easily.
  10. Enjoy your bright, icy pineapple mint popsicles, perfect for cooling off and savoring a moment of refreshment.
