Pina colada popsicles

These are the popsicle equivalent of the quintessential pina colada cocktail and are a perfect summer treat for adults. They could not be easier to whip up. Hold the rum to make them kid-friendly.

I’ve been working on a project with Breville South Africa developing recipes using their top-of-the-range appliances and the Breville Juice and Blend are one of my favourite of them all.

I had been struggling with a juicer that was made circa 1998 and required brute force to get liquid extracted from even the softest fruit. I am blown away with how my new juicer devours fruit and vegetables turning them into liquid gold in a matter of seconds. I am convinced this thing could pull water out of a stone. It’s hardly surprising it is one of their best sellers. When it comes to juice extractors you want a powerful machine for the job, trust me.

The cleaning up of this industrial-strength beast is a breeze when dismantling and putting it back together. You can see this has been well thought through.

I used freshly squeezed pineapple and lime juice to make these pina colada popsicles, and I always squeeze a little extra as a special treat for myself.

These pina colada popsicles are insanely delicious, I promise they will wow.
