Cook Time:
Servings:
6 ice pops
Ingredients
:::For the Thai Chile Salt: :::
2 Thai bird chiles, seeded
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 cups roughly chopped mango (about 1 mango)
1½ cups unsweetened coconut milk
½ cup white rum
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup fresh lime juice
Pinch of salt
Directions
Make the Thai chile salt: Using a mortar and pestle or a food processor, pound or pulse the chiles until finely minced. Add the sugar and salt and crush or pulse together until well combined.
Make the ice pops: In a blender or food processor, purée the mango, coconut milk, white rum, sugar, lime juice and salt until completely smooth. Divide and fill six 9-ounce Dixie cups with the mango-coconut mixture.
Freeze the ice-pops until they're semi-frozen, about 1 hour. Inset a popsicle stick into the center of each cup, return to the freezer and freeze until hard, another 2 hours. Remove from the mold by tearing the corner of the Dixie cup. Sprinkle with the Thai chile salt and serve.
