Description
A refreshing treat combining fresh orange juice and creamy vanilla swirl for a nostalgic, citrusy dessert.
Ingredients
- 2–3 large oranges, juiced (about 1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh orange juice)
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup coconut milk or heavy cream
- 2–3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- A pinch of fine salt
Instructions
- Juice the oranges until you have about 1 to 1 1/2 cups of fresh orange juice. Strain if desired.
- Put the orange juice, coconut milk (or heavy cream), honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into a blender.
- Blend on medium-high for 20–30 seconds until smooth and emulsified.
- Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving about 1/4 inch headspace.
- Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 4–6 hours or overnight.
- To unmold, run warm water over the molds for a few seconds and gently pull the popsicles free.
Notes
For dairy-free, use full-fat canned coconut milk. Add orange zest for extra aroma. Mix in corn syrup or neutral oil to keep pops softer when frozen.
