Carribean splice ice-blocks


One of the delights of last summer was making ice-cream from scratch. Now I'm not going to share a recipe that you you need to churn for hours and hours (though that's totally worth it!) but this is a quick-fix recipe that you can pour into ice-tups for the kids or ice-cube trays for yourself - fabulous dunked in some cold fresh milk or pineapple juice.


What you'll need
150ml pineapple juice or crushed pineapple
400ml coconut cream
Juice of 1 large or 2 small limes
Ice block moulds (I've use Tupperware Ice Tups, I can seriously never have enough of these!)

Method:
In a jug, mix the juices, coconut cream together, give a good stir.
Pour into moulds
Freeze for at least 6-8 hours

It's really that easy!

  1. Sounds great!

    I remember those Ice Tups when I was a kid! My mom made us popsicles with Orange Juice and Kool-Aid!

    I'll have to order some for my daughter!
