Ingredients for 6 popsicles

  • The juice of 1 large pomegranate
  • 200 ml coconut yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup, agave syrup)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (powder or liquid)

 

Additional equipment

  • Popsicle moulds and (wooden) popsicle sticks
  • Patience

 

 

Preparation

1. Squeeze the pomegranate juice over a strainer into another bowl, while removing the seeds with a spoon or a pestle. Try to catch as much juice as possible. 

 

2. Distribute the juice equally into the six popsicle moulds and let chill in the freezer for 1 hour. 

 

3. Mix the coconut yoghurt with the honey and vanilla extract and pour over the chilled pomegranate popsicles. Gently stir the yoghurt and juice mixture with a spoon to create a marbled effect. Let the popsicles chill in the freezer for at least another 3 hours, or until the popsicles are completely frozen. 

 

4. To get your popsicles out of the moulds, loosen them up by dipping the moulds into warm water for a second or two.
