Summer's visit is quickly winding down. But before she flatlines and drifts off to the Southern Hemisphere, we're giving her a taste of Malibu! The rum version, that is - used to infuse these frozen colour blocks of mango, coconut, pineapple and passion fruit with a little Caribbean flavour! Yeah man!
And can I tell you just how much easier this particular popsicle mold made this task! The notched cover that comes with the mold held the popsicle sticks in place and doubled as a display prop.

Ingredients
Malibu Mango Coconut Pops
- 2 cups coconut smoothie organic and BPA-free coconut milk, 2-3 frozen ripe bananas
- 1 cup mango nectar fresh or store-bought
- ¾ cup Malibu Rum
Malibu Passion Fruit Pineapple Pops
- 1 cup pineapple smoothie organic and BPA-free coconut milk, pineapple
- 1 cup passion fruit nectar fresh or store-bought
- ¾ cup Malibu Rum
Instructions
Mango Coconut Pops:
- Make the coconut smoothie, by adding the coconut milk and bananas to a blender and blend in medium-high until smooth. Add the rum and blend for a couple seconds.
- Decide on the colour scheme. For the popsicle with the horizontal mango band in the middle, fill ⅓ of each popsicle mold first with the coconut/rum smoothie, insert the popsicle stick and let freeze for about an hour.
- Remove from the freezer and fill ⅓ with mango nectar. Return to freezer for an hour. Remove and fill the last ⅓ with the coconut/rum smoothie. Allow to freeze for about five hours.
Passion Fruit Pineapple Pops:
- Blend coconut milk and fresh pineapple chunks on medium-high in a blender until smooth. Add half the rum and blend for a couple more seconds. Pour through a sieve to remove any unwanted chunks.
- Add the remaining rung to the passion fruit nectar.
- Pour the smoothie into the popsicle mold to the halfway point. Insert popsicle sticks and place in freezer at a safe angle to avoid spills. Allow to freeze for no less than an hour.
- Remove from freezer and fill the mold with the passion fruit/rum mixture. Return to the freezer in a fully upright position and allow to freeze for five hours.
- Unmold and enjoy!
