Ingredients

  • 3 cups coconut milk yogurt, divided
  • 5 ripe strawwberries
  • 1/2 teaspoon high quality matcha powder
  • 1-3 tablespoons coconut milk

Instructions

  • Place 1 cup of coconut yogurt in a blender along with the strawberries. Blend until smooth and taste. Add maple sryup depending on the sweetness of the fruit. Transfer to a cup with a spout and set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl place 1 cup of coconut yogurt. Sift the matcha powder into the yogurt and stir until completely dissolved (this can also be done in the blender if the matcha is still clumpy.) Add 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup, or more to taste. If you like a strong matcha flavour add a bit more. If the mixture is too thick add a bit of coconut milk. The consistancy should be thick but pourable. Transfer to a cup with a spout and set aside.
  • In another bowl place the remaining 1 cup of coconut yogurt and add 1-2 tablespoons of maple syrup to taste. If needed, thin out the mixture with a bit of coconut milk. Transfer to a cup with a spout.
  • Now for the fun part of pouring the mixture into the molds! Take the strawberry mixture and fill the molds 1/3 of the way up, being careful not to get the mixture on the sides of the molds as you pour. Once they're filled, gently tap the molds on the counter to get rid of any air bubbles. If you want to have a straight line between the colours place into the freezer and let set for 40 minutes. Repeat with the white yogurt mixture and freeze for another 40 minutes. Repeat again with the matcha mixture, place in the sticks and freeze for 3-4 hours. If you don't mind having the colours bleed together, you can pour all the layers at once, place in the sticks and freeze for 3-4 hours. You can also play around with the ratios of the colours in each popsicle for some variation.
  • To unmold, let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes or run them under warm water for 30 seconds. Enjoy!

Notes

Any plain, unsweetened non dairy yogurt can be used. Try using one that has a mild flavour and a thick consistancy.
