Ingredient Notes

One of the things I love most about this recipe is that it only uses four ingredients!

Mango: The mango is the star of the show in this recipe. You can use either fresh or frozen mango, whichever you have on hand. If you're using fresh mango, just be sure that it's nice and ripe.

If you need any help determining if it's ripe or not, check out this article about how to tell if a mango is ripe.

Pineapple: The pineapple gives these mango pineapple popsicles another great boost of flavor. Just like the mango, you can use either fresh or frozen pineapple in this recipe.

Agave Nectar: Agave nectar is a great plant-based substitution for honey or sugar. If you don't have agave nectar on hand, you can use regular sugar.

Coconut Water: I opted for coconut water in this recipe for homemade mango popsicles. It's the perfect balance of sweet and refreshing without being overpowering. It also give these mango pops a nice tropical feel.

Step by Step Instructions

This is such an easy dessert recipe!

You'll start by assembling your ingredients (see above for some ingredient notes), then combine them all in a blender and blend them until they are nice and smooth.

Then pour the mixture into your popsicle molds, add the popsicle sticks, and place them in the freezer for 2-3 hours.

If you need popsicle molds, these are a great option!

If you don't have a little cover and holes for the popsicle sticks, I recommend placing the popsicles in the freezer for about 20 minutes (set a timer for yourself, trust me) and removing them at that time to place the sticks in the slightly frozen pops. Then return to the freezer to finish freezing.

After the ice pops are frozen solid, remove them from the molds and enjoy.

If you have any difficulty removing the pops from the molds, try running the outside of the molds until warm water for several seconds and trying again.

Recipe Variations

Changing the Flavors: If you're unable to eat pineapple or mango, you can swap the same quantity for another fruit of your choice. Though this will change the flavor of the recipe drastically, it's a really easy swap to make.

Sweetener: If you don't have agave nectar, you can substitute sugar or maple syrup in its place instead.

Liquid Base: Though this recipe originally calls for coconut water and I strongly recommend using that for your liquid base, you can switch things up. You can use water, a plant-based milk, or even a juice instead.
