Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 2 cups cold brew coffee
- 1 cup coconut milk (full fat for creaminess)
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2–3 tablespoons sweetener of choice (such as maple syrup, honey, or agave)
Instructions
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl or pitcher, whisk together the cold brew coffee, coconut milk, cocoa powder, and sweetener until all ingredients are fully combined and smooth. Ensure the cocoa powder is well incorporated with no lumps.
- Pour into Molds: Carefully pour the mocha coconut mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little room at the top for expansion when freezing.
- Freeze: Place the filled molds in the freezer for at least 6 hours, or until fully solidified. For best results, freeze overnight.

- Adjust the sweetness to taste depending on your preferred level of sweetness and the strength of your cold brew.
- Make sure to mix cocoa powder thoroughly to avoid any dry pockets in the popsicles.
- For an extra toasted coconut flavor, you can lightly toast shredded coconut and sprinkle on top before freezing if desired.
