Combat the summer heat with these delicious, dairy free, Mango Coconut Milk popsicles. They have been infused with a selection of herbs that help relieve restlessness and promote sleep. No added sugars. Please note the active prep time excludes the 15 minutes of infusion required for the herbs.
Steep the loose leaf herbs in ½ cup boiling water for 15 minutes, then strain the liquid straight into a blender. If you don’t have any herbs, skip this part but add an extra ½ cup coconut milk to the recipe. You can also use fresh herbs if you like - just a few tablespoons of each will do.
TO MAKE THE POPSICLES:
Add all ingredients to the blender with the herbal tea, and blend till smooth.
Pour into popsicle moulds. Sprinkle some buckwheat groats over the top as per my photograph if desired (this gives it a nice crunch at the base). Add popsicle sticks and freeze till set.
To remove popsicles, run the moulds under hot water.
TO DECORATE:
Dunk the tips of the popsicles in coconut yoghurt, then sprinkle coconut threads over the top. Freeze again till set then enjoy.
