Prep Time: 15 minutes  Chill Time: 4 hours

Yield: 8 popsicles  Serving Size: 1 popsicle

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups fresh strawberries or frozen, thawed
  • 1 cup cashews, soaked overnight
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract 
  • 2 cups reduced-fat coconut milk
  • 6 tbsp. raw honey

Directions:

  1. Soak the cashews overnight or soak them in boiling water for 15 minutes. Drain the cashews and add to a food processor. Add the coconut milk, 3 tbsp. honey, and vanilla extract and blend until creamy in a high speed blender. Pour into a container and set aside. 
  2. Next, add the strawberries with 3 tbsp. of honey into the high speed blender. Blend until it turns into a thick liquid but pourable. Pour into a container and set aside. 
  3. Finally, get the popsicle moulds ready and pour the cashew mixture into the popsicle moulds about 1/3 or 1/4 of the way. Follow with a spoon of the strawberry mixture. Alternate until the popsicle has about 3 or 4 layers. You can swirl lightly with the stick if you like or leave to have defined layers. 
  4. You should have about 8 popsicles but the size might differ depending on the mould size. Place in the freezer overnight or for at least 4 hours.
  5. Remove and allow to defrost for 5 minutes before removing from the moulds to serve.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Soak cashews properly. For the smoothest texture, soak them overnight. If short on time, the 15-minute boiling water method works, but blending may take slightly longer.
  • If you have time, refrigerate the blended mixtures for 30–60 minutes. This helps the layers stay separate and gives sharper definition.
  • Run warm water over the outside of the mould for 10–15 seconds to help release popsicles cleanly.
