Mango Coconut Lime Popsicles (Easy Tropical Summer Treat!)

Sharing is caring!

A Sweet Taste of Summer

If there’s one thing that reminds me of summers in Miami, it’s the smell of mangoes ripening on the kitchen counter. That mix of sun, humidity, and tropical fruit was basically the soundtrack of my childhood. And if you know Cuban households, you know there was no shortage of lime in the fridge or coconut in the pantry.

These Mango Coconut Lime Popsicles are a nostalgic nod to all those flavors, but with a creamy, modern twist thanks to coconut yogurt and a splash of agave. I love having a batch of these in the freezer when the Florida heat gets a little too real.

How This Frozen Treat Fits My Cuban-American Life

We didn’t grow up with popsicles like this, ours were more likely to be frozen in little plastic sleeves or made from sugary fruit punch. But mango and lime? Always around. Whether it was a mango tree in your tia’s backyard or a lime squeezed over everything from rice to grilled fish, those flavors just feel like home.

This recipe is my way of blending that Cuban flavor profile with a little dairy-free flair. It’s light, refreshing, and ridiculously easy to make.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups frozen mango – frozen works great and keeps the texture smooth
  • 1 cup sweetened coconut yogurt – adds that creamy texture and tropical flavor; you can use unsweetened and add more agave if needed
  • 2 limes – juice only; if your limes are dry, feel free to add 1–2 tablespoons of water
  • 2 tbsp agave syrup – or swap for honey if not vegan

Note: You’ll need a popsicle mold and sticks!

Tips for Making Mango Coconut Lime Popsicles

  1. Taste before freezing
    Once you blend the mix, give it a taste. Depending on how sweet your mangoes are, you might want a bit more agave or lime juice.
  2. Don’t skip the lime!
    It brightens the flavor and makes everything pop, literally.
  3. Use silicone molds if you can
    They make it way easier to release the popsicles without breaking them.

Step-by-Step Directions

  1. Blend it all up
    Add frozen mango, coconut yogurt, agave, and lime juice to a blender. Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick to blend well, add a splash of water.
  2. Fill your molds
    Pour the mango mixture into your popsicle molds. Leave a little room at the top for expansion. Add the sticks.
  3. Freeze
    Place the molds in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  4. Unmold and enjoy
    Run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to release. Eat immediately or store in a freezer bag for up to a week.
