To achieve the perfect Tropical Bliss Pops, ensuring they are fully frozen is crucial. After pouring your mixture into the molds, place them in the freezer and allow them to chill for at least 6 to 8 hours. This duration will help the pops reach the right consistency, making them creamy yet solid. For optimal results, it's best to freeze them overnight, especially if you're making them for a special occasion the next day.

Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh pineapple chunks (you can use frozen if preferred)

1 cup coconut yogurt (dairy-free option available)

1/2 cup coconut milk (canned for richness, or carton for a lighter option)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust based on your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Pinch of sea salt

Optional: shredded coconut and additional pineapple chunks for garnish

Instructions
 

Begin by placing the pineapple chunks, coconut yogurt, coconut milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt into a high-speed blender. Blend on high until the mixture reaches a velvety smooth consistency.

    After blending, taste the mixture and determine if it meets your sweetness preference. If you desire a sweeter flavor, gradually add more honey or maple syrup and blend again until fully incorporated.

      For those who enjoy a bit of texture, you can incorporate some extra pineapple chunks or shredded coconut into the mixture at this stage, carefully stirring them in with a spatula.

        Evenly pour the blended mixture into popsicle molds, making sure to leave a small gap at the top of each mold to allow for the mixture to expand as it freezes.

          Insert the popsicle sticks into the molds, ensuring they are centered, and carefully transfer the molds to the freezer. Allow them to freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

            To effortlessly release the pops from the molds, run warm water along the outside of each mold for a few seconds—be careful not to let the warm water touch the pops themselves. Gently pull the pops out of their molds.

              For an extra touch of indulgence, roll the pops in shredded coconut or sprinkle additional chunks of pineapple over them for garnish before enjoying.
