Scale
Liquid Ingredients
- 1 cup 100% cherry juice
- 1 cup cola (regular or diet)
- ½ cup coconut cream
Fruit
- 1 cup fresh cherries (pitted and chopped)
Equipment
- Popsicle molds
Instructions
- Mix Cherry Juice and Cola: In a mixing bowl, gently combine 1 cup of 100% cherry juice with 1 cup of cola. Stir carefully to avoid too much fizz loss, ensuring the liquids blend well together.
- Add Coconut Cream: Fold in ½ cup of coconut cream to the cherry-cola mixture until fully incorporated, creating a creamy base with slight fizz.
- Incorporate Fresh Cherries: Stir in 1 cup of pitted and chopped fresh cherries, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture to add texture and bursts of fresh cherry flavor in each bite.
- Pour into Molds: Carefully pour the mixture into popsicle molds, filling each about three-quarters full to allow for expansion during freezing.
- Freeze Popsicles: Insert sticks into each mold and place them in the freezer. Freeze for at least 4 to 6 hours or until the popsicles are completely solid.
Notes
- Use diet cola if you prefer a lower sugar treat.
- Pitting cherries beforehand ensures a comfortable eating experience.
- For creamier texture, ensure coconut cream is fully mixed with liquids before adding cherries.
- Do not overfill molds to prevent spills or freezer messes.
- Allow popsicles to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before removing from molds for easy release.
