You’ll Need:
- Popsicle molds
- Espresso, cold coffee, or cold brew
- Coffee creamer
The Process:
Step one:
Start by pulling out your popsicle molds* and pouring your favorite creamer into them. We filled ours up about halfway, but feel free to use it more or less depending on your preferences. Since we wanted our popsicles to taste like caramel macchiato, we drizzled a bit of caramel syrup around the sides of the molds and used Starbucks caramel macchiato-flavored creamer. But you can customize your pops however you please.
Step two:
Next, top the molds off with chilled, strong coffee. We used cold brew, but regular drip coffee or a shot of espresso work just as well here.
Step three:
Stir the creamer and coffee mixture well so that the flavor is uniform, then stash the flavorful treat in the freezer to harden for a few hours.
Step four:
Remove your frozen coffee popsicles from the freezer and enjoy what we think is the perfect summer treat! If you’re having trouble getting the frozen mixture out of the mold, run it under warm tap water for about 30 seconds; the popsicle should slide right out.
*No popsicle molds? No problem. You can use paper cups and wooden popsicle sticks to get the job done.
Cool Down with a Creamy Coffee Popsicle
One of the best things about this treat is that the customization options are almost endless. Try different creamer flavors, skip the black coffee and add a spoonful or two of granulated sugar to your brew, use flavored coffee syrup, or substitute creamer for almond milk or heavy cream. There are plenty of coffee popsicle recipe variations for you to experiment with, so it won’t be hard to find a combination of ingredients that works for you.
Remember this as you experiment: if you like the add-in in a cup of coffee, you’ll probably like it in your popsicle, too.
Happy Caffeinating!
