Pina Colada Popsicles

Pina colada popsicles are a great way to enjoy summer, a beach party or just to enjoy a chilled boozy popsicle whenever you feel like it. Whenever I think about pina colada it’s always somewhere on a tropical island sipping on pina colada in my beachwear looking at the ocean. unfortunately, I can’t enjoy that scenery every day, so I thought I should create a dessert or a fun food item to replicate my love for cocktails and travelling

Pina colada popsicles

I love the combination of coconut, rum, and pineapple. Transforming this classic cocktail into a fun popsicle is definitely something fun and the perfect way to end a party as well.

Is it me or every time we have visitors over and they stay a little late and after a few drinks, we all need like ice cream or something to just sum up the night? hahahhahah it could be just me, but imagine, you have these popsicles ready to go in your freezer and you can serve your guest some fun popsicles at the end of the night. Oh, I am definitely going to do that in my next gathering.

The essential equipment needed to make Pina colada popsicles

Vitamix has been my life saviour making any cocktails, mocktails, smoothies, purees, sauces and pastes. It is such a versatile blender. When blending things such as pineapple, which has so much fibre, it is important to blend the mixture until really smooth if not the little pineapple pieces will have a very unpleasant textural mouthfeel. Vitamix is such a good product that blends any mixture really well.
