This coconut-pineapple ice cream tastes so similar to the popular summer drink, Pina Colada! Blend fresh pineapple with sweet coconut milk and add cacao nibs, which add crunch and a subtle chocolate contrast to the tropical ice cream. Freeze in special molds. Pina Colada lovers can experiment by adding a splash of rum to the fruit mixture before freezing.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt and place over medium heat. Heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until all the sugar has dissolved. Cool completely at room temperature, at least 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, coarsely chop 3/4 of the prepared pineapple (you should get 2 heaping cups). Cut the remaining pineapple into 0.8 cm pieces (about the size of a large corn kernel).

  3. In a blender, combine the sweetened coconut milk and chopped pineapple until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed to remove any splatter. Pour the mixture into a large measuring cup with a liquid spout. Stir in the remaining pineapple chunks and cacao nibs.
  4. Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving 0.5 cm from the top (the mixture will expand). Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 5 hours or overnight. Once the ice cream is ready, remove it from the molds and enjoy.
