Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized (about 3 cups cubed) fresh pineapple
- 1 cup coconut water
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 1 pinch salt
Directions
Step 1
Begin by peeling and coring the fresh pineapple. Cut it into small cubes until you have about 3 cups worth.
Step 2
In a blender, combine the pineapple cubes, coconut water, fresh lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Taste the mixture, and if you prefer a bit more sweetness, add honey to your taste, and blend again until the honey is fully incorporated.
Step 4
Pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a small gap at the top to allow for expansion as they freeze.
Step 5
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds, ensuring they are centered.
Step 6
Place the molds in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until completely frozen.
Step 7
To remove the popsicles from the molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to loosen them.
Step 8
Enjoy your heart-healthy pineapple popsicles straight from the freezer or store them in a freezer-safe container for up to a month.
