Healthy Green Tea Coconut Popsicles (Vegan, Dairy Free)

Earthy matcha, rich coconut milk, and sweet, sweet agave nectar come together for a delightfully refreshing summer treat.
Prep: 15 minutes
Freeze 5 hours
Total: 5 hours 15 minutes
Yield:6 popsicles

Equipment

  • medium mixing bowl or large measuring cup
  • whisk
  • small mixing bowl
  • popsicle molds

Ingredients

  • 1 13.5-ounce can full-fat coconut milk must be full fat
  • 1-2 tablespoons almond milk or 1-2 tablespoons full-fat coconut milk, plus more as needed
  • 2-3 teaspoons matcha powder culinary-quality, plus more to taste if needed
  • ¼ cup agave nectar or honey

Instructions

  • Add can of coconut milk to medium mixing bowl or large measuring cup and whisk until completely smooth. Set aside.
  • In small mixing bowl, mix 1-2 tablespoons almond milk with 2 teaspoons matcha powder until mixture is completely smooth. Pour matcha mixture into coconut milk.
  • Add agave nectar to coconut milk mixture and whisk until all ingredients are fully combined. Taste mixture and adjust flavors as needed (see Notes).
  • When satisfied with flavors, pour mixture into popsicle molds and place in freezer. Freeze popsicles at least 5 hours, then serve and enjoy. Keep frozen until ready to eat.

Notes

  • Flavor Adjustments: For a stronger matcha taste, mix together another 1 teaspoon matcha powder with 1 tablespoon almond milk. When smooth, add to popsicle mixture and whisk until combined. For sweeter popsicles, add more agave nectar or honey to the popsicle mixture in ½ teaspoon increments, whisking well and tasting after each addition. You can also add a teaspoon or so of pure vanilla extract.
  • Consistency: For creamier, richer popsicles, use full-fat coconut milk instead of almond milk.
  • Make it Paleo: Use raw, unfiltered honey or maple syrup instead of agave nectar.
