There's no better way to cool down than with a homemade pineapple popsicle made from real ingredients. Creamy coconut milk and sweet pineapple come together in minutes, then your freezer does all the work. Make a batch tonight and you'll have the best frozen treat ready for tomorrow.

Christina's Notes
Here's everything you need to nail these popsicles on the first try.
Start cold: Use refrigerated coconut milk and cold pineapple straight from the fridge. Cold ingredients freeze faster and more evenly.
Leave room at the top: Fill molds to about ¼ inch from the top. Liquids expand as they freeze and need that space.
Don't skip the sweetener: Agave syrup isn't just for flavor — it also affects the final texture of the popsicle. Leave it out and the result will be noticeably different.
Full-fat coconut milk only: Light coconut milk will give you an icy texture rather than a creamy one. It's worth the difference.
Freeze the full 6 hours: Pulling them too early means soft, slushy centers. Give them the full freeze time for best results.
Tap out the air bubbles: A few firm taps on the counter after filling eliminates hollow pockets in the finished popsicle.
Release with warm water: Run hot water over the mold for 15 seconds and wiggle gently. Patience here prevents broken popsicles.
Store them wrapped: Once unmolded, wrap individually in wax paper and keep in a freezer bag. They stay fresh for up to 2 months.
Try the layered version: For a stunning presentation, alternate spoonfuls of blended pineapple and coconut milk in the mold instead of blending them together.
Go tropical with add-ins: Fresh coconut, lime juice, strawberries, or cherries all pair beautifully with this base recipe.
