Coco Cooler
Prep Time: 30 minutes + Freeze time
Servings: 8 Ice Pops
Ingredients:
- 2 cups / 500 ml diced frozen canned coconut milk
- 1/2 cup / 50 g of grated coconut
- 1/3 cup / 80 ml non-frozen coconut milk
- 6-8 stems of lavender (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 lime
- 3/4 tablespoons of honey
- 3 peaches
Steps:
1. Pour the coconut milk into an ice cube mold and freeze for about 2 hours.
2. Cut the peaches into cubes and put them on a baking sheet with a little coconut oil. Bake at 180ºC for about 20 minutes.
3. Put the frozen coconut milk in your blender or food processor with the grated coconut, the coconut milk, the lavender, the teaspoon of vanilla, zest and juice of ½ lime, the 2 tablespoons of honey and blend until texture is creamy.
4. Pour a little into the molds, add a little roasted peach, more ice cream and roasted peach to have as layers. The idea is to create a "marbling" effect. Put an ice cream stick in each one and put in the freezer overnight.
5. Remove from the freezer, pass the mold through warm/hot water for a few seconds, without getting the ice creams wet and remove them carefully. Ready!
