Creamy, smooth Coconut Pineapple Popsicles areย made with only 4-ingredients and couldn’t be easier to prepare!
I’ve tried making fancy popsicles over the years, with very little success. ย The simple, fresh, uncomplicated recipes are often my favorites anyway and this popsicle is all that and so much more! ย You can tweak the recipe by adding a little spiced rum for a tropical flavor that reminds me of an icy cold Piรฑa Colada. ย With the heat wave we’ve been having, these popsicles have been our go-to treat after weeding the garden, mowing the grass, or just because.
This recipe makes a total of 15 popsicles which is 5 more than the standard mold will hold.
I cover and refrigerate the remainingย mixture overnightย then spike it with a little rum and freeze in the molds after the others are removed. ย Nowย I have something to share with my grown up friends too (like my contractor who is still here working on the kitchen!)
These Coconut Pineapple Popsicles freeze beautifully, not too soft and not too hard.
The rum doesn’t make them overly soft unless you get carried away and add too much. ย Can you add too much rum? ย I don’t think I’ll test that one ๐ ย I’d be worthless the rest of the day!
Coconut Pineapple Popsicles – perfect for the weekend and these long hot dog days of summer!

Coconut Pineapple Popsicles
Ingredients
- 1 can (20-ounce) of pineapple chunks, in juice (not syrup) do not drain
- 1 can (5.4-ounce) of unsweetened, whole fat, coconut milk
- 4 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- ยฝ - โ cup sweetened condensed milk adjust to taste
- 1-2 tablespoons spiced rum (optional)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in the carafe of a good blender. Process until smooth. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze for 1 hour, then insert popsicle sticks. Return to the freezer and leave overnight.
- To remove from the molds, allow the popsicles to rest at room temperature for 5 minutes, then dip the bottoms in a sink filled with hot water. Hold in the water for just a few seconds and remove. Try to remove a popsicle from the mold and if it won't come out, submerge another 10 seconds or so until they release.
- Store the popsicles in an airtight container in the freezer.
Recipe Notes
- Most molds hold 10 popsicles. This recipe makes a total of 15. You can refrigerate the leftover mixture until the others are frozen and removed from the mold or add a little ice and rum and have a smoothie.

I know it wasnโt intentional, but Haha love it, the way you wrote your post though sounds like you give the rum ones to 4 year old grandson and adults, too????
Tricia Buice
Haha – you’re right Joy! I’ll have to fix that ๐

So refreshing! The flavours in these popsicle are a little out of the ordinary and very, very tempting. It’s been a hot summer and these would be a welcome refreshment.
Tricia Buice
Nothing like a little tropical escape Beth! These have been a big hit in our house!
Robyn @ Simply Fresh Dinners
These photos are stunning, Tricia! And I just love the idea of adding a little rum to my popsicle, lol. The heat demands that I make these tomorrow – it’s a holiday here – yay!
Tricia Buice
Thank you Robyn – these have been a real treat on hot summer days. My grandson loved them!

Dalila G.
It’s hot out, so this is a wonderful treat for me, love it!
Coconut/Pineapple is the way to go. ๐
Question….rum…straight or does it have to go into the popsicle……LOL!! ๐
Have a wonderful weekend!
Pinned!
Tricia Buice
Thanks so much for the comment Dalila! And to answer your question – you don’t have to put the rum in the popsicle – or you could do both – great plan!
Jennifer @ Seasons and Suppers
These sound just perfect! I love the simple ingredients and flavours and a shot of rum is sounding good, too ๐
Tricia Buice
Thanks Jennifer!
Becky Green
SO YUMMY!!!! ๐
Tricia Buice

Angie@Angie's Recipes
Super creamy and delicious!
Tricia Buice
Thanks Angie ๐ Have a lovely weekend!
Monica
So smooth and fantastic, Tricia! What a great way to cool off. I think my little guy would love these (without the rum : ) because he loves pina colada – something we discovered on vacation in the Caribbean when he consumed a record amount of them. For us adults, that kick of spiced rum sounds great. You’ve got me thinking of the tropics right now.
Have a great weekend!
Tricia Buice
I bet your son would enjoy these Monica and they’re not overly sweet ๐ I want to go to the Caribbean! Sounds like a great vacation.
Gerlinde @ Sunnycovechef
I am in hot Sacramento and one of your delicious looking Popsicle would be so refreshing .
Tricia Buice
Thanks Gerlinde! They really hit the spot on a hot day.
cheri
These look so creamy and delicious, love all the tropical flavors that you used. I can see myself on the beach under an umbrella enjoying one of these. Have a wonderful week-end Tricia!
Tricia Buice
That sounds like a great way to enjoy these popsicle Cheri – I’m all in!
Rochelle
Hi Tricia,
Going to make these in 2 days…Easter. Can any of your popsicle recipes be made in the loaf pan? Maybe a muffin tin?
THANKS,
ROCHELLE
Tricia Buice
Hi Rochelle. Of course you can make them in anything you want, however, they freeze solid so it’s not sliceable or scoopable. If you have small paper cups, they make great stand-ins for popsicle molds. The muffin pan might work well. Let us know how it goes!
sue | theviewfromgreatisland
These look so creamy and frosty, I’m dying for one! The ingredient list sounds wonderful ๐
Tricia Buice
I love this combination Sue – not as “good for you” as your beautiful fruit pops, but the creaminess is worth it! Have a lovely weekend.
Chris Scheuer
Oh how I wish I had one of these right now! I love the pineapple coconut flavor combination and the spike of rum sounds wonderful.
Tricia Buice
Me too Chris – they are so refreshing with a tropical flare! Have a great weekend ๐
