If you are looking for a healthy, refreshing treat, look no further. These popsicles contain protein from the Greek yogurt and have no added sugar.
I didn’t make these popsicles alcoholic, but if you’d like to add some rum to the yogurt/milk mixture, go for it! Maybe make half of them with rum and half without. This way when your kids enjoy their treat, you can have your “adult treat”. Everyone wins!
If you are like me, you are so ready for the summer and warm weather. This winter was the absolute pits. I am really looking forward to hot, summer days and those cold, refreshing treats. And who doesn’t love a virgin Pina-colada?
Pina Colada Popsicles
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup coconut Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup light coconut milk
- 2 1/2 cup diced pineapple divided
Instructions
-
In a small bowl, mix together yogurt and milk until blended.
-
Take 1/2 cup of pineapple and stir it into the yogurt mixture.
-
Take remaining pineapple and blend in blender until smooth, but you can leave it as chunky as you'd like.
-
Pour blended pineapple onto bottom 1/4 of popsicle mold.
-
Next pour yogurt mixture, then more blended pineapple until filled to the top (leaving a half inch room).
-
Freeze for a few hours until frozen solid.
Do you remember Froze-Fruit bars? Wait, do they still make them? That’s what I was trying to recreate (with the chunks of pineapple) but without all of the unnecessary sugars and additives.
Ok, the popsicles are read, now BRING ON THE SUMMER! Have a great day 🙂
I’m with you. I’m so ready for summer after this snow filled nasty winter! We love pina-colada flavors and I’m putting Popsicle molds on my must get list and trying this our for those wonder hot summer evenings that I’m looking so forward to!

Thank you Beverly! They really are delicious 🙂
This would be nice on a hot summer day or evening!
How much rum would be suitable to add to this recipe?
I just did a little research online and I think between 2-3 ounces would be great in these popsicles! I hope you enjoy them! 🙂
