Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 popsicles
Ingredients
- 2 cups cold brew coffee
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 cups of cold brew coffee, 1 cup of coconut milk, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Ensure that your cold brew coffee is well-chilled for the best results.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cold brew coffee and coconut milk. Use a whisk to blend them together until they are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Add the maple syrup to the mixture. This will add sweetness to your popsicles. Whisk again until the maple syrup is completely dissolved and evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Stir in the vanilla extract. This will enhance the flavor of your popsicles. Make sure it is well mixed with the other ingredients.
- Once all the ingredients are thoroughly combined, taste the mixture. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add more maple syrup to your liking, then whisk again.
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds. Leave a little space at the top of each mold to allow for expansion as they freeze.
- If your popsicle molds come with sticks, insert them into the molds now. If not, you can freeze the popsicles for about 1-2 hours, then insert wooden sticks once they start to set.
- Place the filled molds in the freezer. Allow the popsicles to freeze completely for at least 4-6 hours, or until they are solid.
- Once frozen, remove the popsicles from the molds. If they are difficult to release, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to help loosen them.
- Enjoy your creamy cold brew popsicles immediately, or store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer for later enjoyment.
Tips
- Use high-quality cold brew coffee for the most robust flavor. If possible, brew your own or use a premium store-bought version.
- Shake or whisk your coconut milk before measuring to ensure a smooth, consistent texture.
- For an extra indulgent twist, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate before freezing.
- Invest in good-quality popsicle molds with easy release mechanisms to make removing the popsicles simpler.
- If you don't have wooden sticks, clean popsicle sticks from craft stores work perfectly.
- For a more adult version, you could add a tablespoon of coffee liqueur to the mixture for a boozy kick.
- Always taste and adjust the sweetness before freezing—everyone's sweet tooth is different!
