Ingredients

  • 1 can - Cream of Coconut
  • 2 cans - Coconut Milk
  • 1 can - Water
  • 1/4 tsp - Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 tsp - Cinnamon ground
  • to taste - Sugar

Instructions

  • This one is a lot more straightforward. Just toss everything in a mixer or a bowl and with your favorite cooking utensil, give it a good mix. 
  • Once everything is incorporated, taste it. It shouldn't be crazy sweet, you're looking for coconut flavor, not a candy. But if you feel like it could use a little sweetness you can add a bit of sugar. 
  • Once it's mixed nice, divide it up into the cups. Then take a small pinch of cinnamon and sprinkle it on top of each cup. Don't mix it, just let it sit. 
  • Put the cups in the freezer overnight. 

Notes

  • For the coconut milk, my mom uses the same homemade coconut milk from making the coquito. So if you want to kill two birds with one stone, make a little more coconut milk than what you need for the coquito when you're making that. 
  • A can of water is exactly that. Just take one of the empty cans of milk you just poured out and fill it up with water.
  • For the cups, you'll need a medium sized plastic cup. Not a solo cup size, and not a little disposable mouthwash cup size. But you're looking for something that will be disposable and easy for a kid to hold. 
  • A tip for eating this: When it's ready to eat, try and manipulate it out of the plastic cup by squeezing it or letting the cup sit in some hot water for a few seconds. Once you can pop out the entire cup of frozen coconutiness, flip it upside down in the same cup. Or a new cup if you're particular about touching your food. This way, it'll be just like eating a fresh popsicle.
