How to make coffee popsicles

Ingredients:

  • Popsicle Molds
  • Creamer
  • Iced coffee

Instructions:

  • Fill the top of the mold with your favorite creamer. Typically, the top of your mold will be facing down when preparing popsicles.
  • Put molds into the freezer.
  • Once the creamer has frozen, remove the molds from the freezer and fill the rest of the mold with iced coffee.
  • Place popsicle sticks into the molds.
  • Freeze popsicles until they’re completely solid.
  • Enjoy!

Bonus Tips:

  • Make ice cubes with the remaining iced coffee. This helps your iced coffee drinks stay cold without diluting the flavor.
  • You can also dip your popsicle in your iced coffee for an added flavor (and caffeine) boost.

How to customize your homemade coffee popsicles

Make layered coffee popsicles. You can create delicious, customizable, layered coffee popsicles by adding one layer to your molds, freezing them, and adding another layer once the previous layer is frozen solid. For example, to make a tasty 3-layer coffee popsicle add an iced coffee layer, freeze for one hour, add a latter layer, freeze, and finally, add a creamer layer with any desired mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts, and freeze until solid.

Use different types of coffee. You can use regular coffee, espresso, or cold brew coffee for your coffee popsicles. Each type of coffee will give your popsicles a different flavor and intensity.

Make them alcoholic. If you're 21 or older and looking for a fun, refreshing summer adult beverage, you can add a shot of your favorite liquor to your popsicles, giving them a boozy kick.

Add different mix-ins for a dessert-focused treat: You can add different mix-ins to your creamer layer, like chocolate chips, nuts, cocoa powder, chocolate sauce, caramel sauce, and more, to create a more dessert-focused coffee popsicle.
