Coconut Bliss Pride Pops
Inspired by Pride Month, we created these rainbow vegan popsicles layered with color and flavor.
Inspired by Pride Month we created these rainbow vegan popsicles layered with color and flavor. Enjoy them with friends throughout the month of June or show your colors all year long.
You won’t find any food dyes in this recipe! Our delicious Infinite Coconut ice cream blends together with a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables to create a tropical rainbow popsicle. Each rainbow layer is created with natural and organic ingredients that you can find in your local grocery store. If you can’t find fresh fruit you can substitute frozen fruit for the same effect.
These vegan fruit pops are so sweet and delicious that you would never know they had nutritious vegetables in them. We encourage you to try different colorful ingredients at home and see which flavors you like best. You can try beets, pumpkin, kiwi, and other fun combinations.

Directions
Coconut Bliss Pride Pops
Blend each layer separately in a high speed blender.
Put water and other liquids in the blender first, then layer in ingredients.
Blend on high until all ingredients are incorporated and mixture is completely smooth.
Transfer mixture to a glass or jar and store in the refrigerator until ready to assemble popsicles.
Once all layers are blended to desired color and consistency, begin layering into popsicle molds. Starting with the red layer. For rainbow order: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple.
If using a turkey baster, insert the tip into the pint glass with the bulb depressed and then release to draw the smoothie into the syringe. Slowly squeeze the mixture into the popsicle mold. Rinse in between each layer to avoid muddying colors. Repeat for each layer.
If using a spoon to layer in your smoothie mixtures, we recommend using a different spoon for each layer.
Once each popsicle mold is filled, place in freezer overnight. To remove popsicle from molds, run them briefly under warm water.
