Fruit Popsicle Recipe – Sharmis Passion

Fruit popsicle is a cool refreshing frozen treat made using fresh fruits and coconut water. This is simple home style popsicle which is mostly liked during summer days when everything feels very hot and heavy. This is one of those easy recipes that gives natural sweetness from the fruits without any artificial flavors or colors. Children enjoy it a lot because it looks colorful and tastes fresh in every piece.

This popsicle is light, juicy, and very cool when eaten straight from the freezer. The fruit remains slightly soft inside while the coconut water freezes around it into a slightly icy texture. This is an easy way to enjoy summer fruits without making them boring. Once frozen, it always runs out quickly and kids keep asking for more.

About Fruit Popsicle

A fruit popsicle is a homemade frozen dessert made by mixing fruit with coconut water and freezing it in a mold. It is not as heavy as ice cream but still tastes cool and sweet. The natural fruit flavor comes through very clearly in every bite. It feels like a little fruity surprise inside a frozen bar that melts slowly in the mouth.

This recipe is often made during the summer season when fresh fruits are easily available. It is soft, juicy and slightly crunchy depending on the fruits used. The taste is naturally sweet and sometimes mildly tart, depending on the combination of fruits. Coconut water gives a very light refreshing base which keeps it simple. This is the easiest way to feed different fruits to children without any hassle.

You can use any fruit of your choice like grapes, apple, kiwi, strawberry or pomegranate. Some people also add juice instead of coconut water for a different taste. This is a flexible recipe and you can change the fruits every time depending on the season. Each batch has a slightly different color and taste making it more fun to prepare again and again.

I usually make this when fruits are lying in the fridge and no one wants to eat them fresh. Sometimes I even make extra and store it for a few days so that there is always something good ready at home.

fruit popsicle ingredients

• mixed fruit – I have used it as the main part of popsicle, it gives natural sweetness and color. You can use any seasonal fruit of your choice or substitute any fruit.
• tender coconut water – Used as a liquid base for freezing, it gives a mildly sweet and refreshing taste. If necessary, you can replace it with lemon juice or any light fruit juice.

How to make fruit popsicle step by step

1. Measure out the soft coconut water and keep it aside. Clean and chop the fruits. I have used mixed fruits, check the ingredients list. Take out the fruits in a spoon.

2. Fill the popsicle mold about ¾ of the way full. Then pour coconut water a little below the edge of the mold.

3. Cover with aluminum foil. Look how beautiful they look. Add ice cream sticks.

4.Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight. I usually freeze overnight. Expose the bottom of the mold under running tap water, slowly and gradually pull out the sticks. enjoy!

Serve immediately!

Expert Tips

• Cutting – I usually cut fruits into small pieces so that they freeze properly and are easy to eat. Once frozen, it may be difficult to cut into larger pieces.
• fruit balance – Try mixing soft and slightly hard fruits so that the texture looks interesting when eating the popsicle. Very soft fruits may become mushy on their own.
• filling molds – Do not fill the mold completely, leave a small space so that the coconut water has room to expand during freezing and does not fall.
• stick placement – I just insert the sticks right before freezing so they stay straight and don’t move when frozen.
• to solidify – I freeze overnight so that the popsicles set completely and come out clean without breaking. Freezing for a short time can soften them.

serving and storage

For best taste and cooling effect serve it straight from the freezer when completely frozen and it tastes refreshing on a hot afternoon and also serves as a light dessert after meals. Store them in a mold or airtight container in the freezer so that they remain fresh for a few days.
